exactly one year ago today was the day of my graduation. the day i left all of my best friends for the next part of life. well, exactly one year ago today i got dismissed from school at 1 and went with my really good close friend kaylee and got our hair done, and got ready together. and now today my friend kayla who i have been best friends with since we were born graduated from the very same place.
the years when i was at that school were a little different for us, we had the same 3 teachers every year and the same kids in our classes. so as a class we grew VERY close. so graduating and leaving was 100 times as hard. water works galore! hah. we went on 3! class trips, mostly because our teachers for all those years was the one who headed the class trips and was in love with us.
Now today at 8 am i woke up and spent the day with the same girl i spent this exact day with last year, Kaylee. i havent seen her since this day one year ago. so there was a lot to catch up on. and then at 1 i met kayla, i went with her to get her hair done, do her makeup and get ready. i can say i was really emotional today considering how much things have changed and just all the things that came back to me. and tonight at 7.
Just like one year ago, i walked back into the same school, into the same gym that i hadnt been in once since that night. i remember that night so well. it started out exciting and then about half way throught the ceremony when our teachers started speaking and me and my friend amanda did the class speech that we got forced into by the way, we all started tearing up and by the time the slideshow of pics from the past years started playing there wasnt a student with a dry eye in the auditorium.
so tonight i walked into that building and saw my 3 teachers standing in the same spots they stood in last year on my grad night, except this time it was kaylas turn.
i thought i was all good until the very end when they called kaylas name, if you knew kayla this wouldnt seem crazy at all, but they called her name, she stood at the edge of the stage getting ready to walk down the stairs, stuck her tongue out at me and then proceded to flip off the crowd as she walked away! it was a classic kayla moment to say the least. the entire student body was extemely happy since she did what they all wished they had the courage to do, and i know i didnt have the courage to do it! hah. and so far there were no tears until the music started playing for them to all walk out. the same song that played my year. and i could feel the emotions all coming back to me.
the year i graduated the second i got through the doors in to the hallway kayla came running up to me and gave me the first hug i got as a graduate, she cried as when it was my turn. and today when she walked out and i ran up, we both started balling.
lets just say this weekend when we get together we wont exactly be the ones sitting at home instead of partying.
i mean, hey, it is our last summer together right? why not make it last!
