I Graduated

*Spitfire* · 06-18-2006, 03:19 PM

Damn, it seems like forever since I started school. 13 years is a long time...some try to say school is fun! And I guess it can be until you get into Middle school. High school however is Hell incarnate. There is nothing fun about it. It's like going to visit Satan everyday with bad news.

But gladly this crap is over for me! Yes it feels quite good too. No more school at the moment and my whole family is happy with me. Now I get to go to college and learn stuff I WANT to learn.

If my parents managed to get any good pics I'll post them but I don't think they did since they were really far and zoom only works so well.

The best feeling, some say sex is the best feeling, I can beg to differ. A pent of 13 year long organism takes the cake any day. Such a stress reliever.

My mum's a teacher, so i was in school from 3 months old

Congratulations, man! I reccomend taking a gap year to celebrate! It was great fun for me.

*Kid Icarus* · 06-18-2006, 03:34 PM

Ah, congrats...

But don't get to thinking that college is going to be all fun. Oh no. I work in a dining hall, and i talk to college kids all the time durring dead week. They're not fun at all then.

*Anarky* · 06-18-2006, 03:46 PM

Congratulations, I still remember how I felt when I finally graduated. Now go, get drunk and have some fun. You earned it.

*Spitfire* · 06-18-2006, 04:00 PM

Thanks guy ^_^

Yeah UC kids have no fun, community kids have no fun, art students however...I've talked to tons of people who went to or are attending the college I'm going to and they said it's great! They said the art programs are really good and it's a blast. The teachers are all real down to earth and take the time to talk to you when you need it. Perfect for me. I'm going to Major in either film or graphic desgin. eee I can't wait.

*Brodie* · 06-18-2006, 04:16 PM

Have fun in college.

*Sewer Bull* · 06-18-2006, 04:17 PM

Congratz, Spitfire!

... I so hope I'm going to graduate very very soon too.

*Raven* · 06-18-2006, 04:21 PM

Congrats spitfire, how was your ceramony?

We had ours about three weeks ago and it was quite interesting, it was so hot in the building that one of the people that signal for us to leave fainted during it.

Ours sucked, it was on a huge football feild made of astro-turf. The rubber got so hot, I was baking. The robe made it worse. The bleachers the people sat in were made of metal so I can only imagine how bad that was. It took forever to get through all 640 students O_O

Thank you guys ^_^

640, geez thats huge. We only had 110....yeah were small....

*Spitfire* · 06-18-2006, 04:34 PM

I would have much prefered that. We had about 6 teachers each reading about 100 names. It was nuts. Poor teachers had to wear black robes. Me I had on all black so it sucked...but hell I don't own anything but all black.

*cowabunga14* · 06-18-2006, 05:17 PM

Congratulations, Spitfire! I can't wait till I graduate so I'll know how awesome it feels. Good luck in college, dude.

*XERO* · 06-18-2006, 05:19 PM

Congrats, Spitz. You've done me proud.

Er...

Scratch that.

Just congratulations.

*damnhooligan* · 06-18-2006, 05:34 PM

*pops her collar* I was too cool for my graduation ceremony. I skipped it and picked up my diploma a couple days later. Oh yeah.

Congrats, Spitfire. Hope ya don't mind the high frequency of elitish douchebags at art school. You're a far braver man than I.

Haha nothing I can't handle. Anyone who turns art into a contest is an idiot in my opinion. Art isn't about being the best it's about being creative and having fun. What is best is just someones opinion. They think their better but that won't be everyones opinion.

Also I'm pretty good at ignoring people so that should help out too haha

Sliced · 06-18-2006, 05:52 PM

Hey congrats spitfire. Yeah we really do suck in those friggin balck robe. I had to wear it for my high school ceremony, and I will have to wear it again since I will have another ceremony for my graduation as an Infographist. But at least, this time, I won't have to wear the friggin hat !

And I totaly agree with you, art is not a competition. When I was in my infographist class, we were helping each other more than fighting and insulting each other. Hope it will be like that for you too.

I just hate ppl who are over themselves trying to prove to the world are good they are, while in fact, the best one is the one sitting in the back, not talking much but creating little wonders...

Yup, that's how life is

Good job, kid. Now go to college and get a real job.
