Well, as of yesterday evening at about 7:30 I graduated high school. That night I went to grad night at it was friggin awesome. 10pm - 6am. I heard they spent $44,000 on this event that most of the graduating class goes to. To get in you had to pay $115, so it better be cool. At the end everyone united like I have never seen before, everybody loved everybody, regardless of what happened in the four years prior. It's weird that it takes seperation like graduation to unite people, the last time I will see many of those people was this morning, and they had four years to tell us how much they loved us and how we all meant to them, but they pick the last day that I will see them.

 

I totally agree with you about the uniting as a single entity when its too late. But it's simply human nature I suppose...unfortunately it typically takes change, or tragedy for human beings to see past insignificant differences.

Congrats on the graduation and good luck with all your future engagements. :cheers:

 

damn...once commencement was over, all the graduates including myself booked out of there to go to grad parties and drink ourselves stupid.

 

Our grad night cost like 20 bucks a person and kicked ass.

 

The whole point of grad night is so we don't go out, get drunk, and die in a car accident. I am perfectly okay with that, so long as they do a good job at it. Thanks for the congrats.

 

in 2001 (my grad. class), my school didn't have that because they couldn't fund it. i don't know if they do it now

 

our grad night was at a run down bowling alley (which they tore down a few years later). it was an all night affair, and they wouldnt let you leave. an hour into it, they ran out of food, shortly thereafter they ran out of drinks. and the a/c was broken or something because it was really hot.

all in all, im sure they spent about $50 on the thing.

 

went to disneyland
