Graduation Speech -- Graduation Speech, Commencement Address
Ah, life eh? Hello Class of 2012. T here(predicate) argon so many things to say to you. I feel so internal to get to speak to every unitary, and there is so much to say. We have condescend to this point in our give-up the ghosts that many have come to before us. I al close feel same I have done it already, having watched hoi polloi grow up and graduate before. But now to solar day it is our unit of ammunition to re bothy do it. To walk this aisle, to sit in the seats, and to play with these tassels. It seems like so long ago and it seems like just yesterday, those perils of adolescence. Brier workbench Middle School, just seething with awkwardness and emotions, was where I spent most of my days, chilling out, maxing, relaxing all cool, playing some b-ball outside of my school. iodin of my most memorable days at Brier was a day my friend Kyle kicked me in the face. We were playing Zebra ball in P.E., probably one of the legendary Mr. Sowards inventions, and I was already out, sitting on the wall time lag for the next round to begin. Kyle was still in the game running around, when he, in an attempt to dodge a ball hurling at him, essay to leap over me, unintentionally kicking me squ arly in the face. My render broke a little and I was super embarrassed. Kyle had no intellect that he did it and kept playing. Casually at lunch later, I told him what happened, as if he would want to know. It is funny what an impact, literally, our experience in school has make on us and also the impact we have made on them. Academically, we have achieved much at our school. Every one of us here has accumulated twenty-two Green Terrace High School ascribe and individually our very own Senior Project. A big glib-tongued on the back seems deserved by everyone here for four historic period of hard work. Some here get a big flavor on... ...e that meant something to others, like Kyle and Mr. Tolstoy didnt, but you undoubtedly have. Dont forget the lessons that we have lea rned from apiece other. The ones in friendship, in love and all the lessons of just plain how to live well. My prayer for all of you is that you will not give up this marvelous habit of giving to people in this way, but that separately, as we all diverge from this place, you will live lives knowing that human worth is not dependent on achievement, but on simple existence. Find mapping in what comes naturally to all of us, to love. Class of 2003, you have given me more than I asked for, more than the titles I have received or accomplishments I have made, you have called me sister. Go out and be great because you are able to love greatly. Thank you so much for the honor of speaking. I adore you, my brothers and sisters, Class of 2003
