| Graduation |
My graduation was the best day ever; I spent a great time with all my friends. I was waiting a long time for this day to arrive and finally it came, "my graduation day".
I was so excited and nervous at the same time. I knew it was going to be a great day for my friends and I. The graduation was dedicated to a really good teacher named Ms. Santiago, they decided to dedicate it to her because she was going to retire. The Masters of ceremonies are the ones that tell the program of what is going to be due in the graduation. Both students started talking and giving the program. First they called a group of students who gave a dance performance, then some girls sang, finally the ceremony started, that is when the teachers called all students to give us the medals and certificates. So far we were having a good time. Everything was really great. I enjoyed every minute of my graduation.
After the graduation we all went out to dinner with our parents. We arrived to the restaurant, sat down ready to order. and while waiting we started to talk and make some jokes. We laughed, and told each other our good and not such good stories of high school. It was a moment I will never forget. Night fell and it was time to say goodbye and go to our houses. As we were saying goodbye tears started to fall from our eyes.
I felt sad, because I knew that was going to be the last time spent with them. Although I knew we would keep in touch, it wasn't going to be the same as if we were still in high school. In high school we were always together, but something inside of me knew that once we graduated we would move apart.
But even though I felt sad, part of me felt really happy being able to graduate and have my diploma. In Puerto Rico everyone has the advantage of study, but not everyone takes that opportunity. It feels wonderful that I finally could accomplish my goal. I was exited about going to college and experiment with new things. I guess all of us feels the same way at first, but then you realize that it is not as easy as you think it would be.
Many of us would go to different colleges here and abroad; but the amazing thing is that I knew I would have my high school friends for ever. What made it all even harder was that my parents decided to move to Connecticut leaving all my friends behind, but we all keep in touch either by emails or facebook. Hopefully I can go on vacation to Puerto Rico and reunite with them and have a great time together like old times.
