Graduated!

A blue ocean of to be Alumni 2009.
Line up girls on one side and boys on the other. Starting with top 10, followed by High honors(GPA 3.5-),honors(me)(3.0-3.5) and the rest(high enough to graduate).
Slowly the lines start moving inside.
We get to the doors and stop. One at the time.
To walk down the aisle to the seats for Class of 09.
Girls boys every other row.
Face the audience.
Last graduate is standing on place and we turn, still standing.
Principal talks and let us sit.
He talks more and thanks everyone and introduces the student holding a speech. Christina Young.
When she was done, principal took over and we started walking up on stage to receive our "diploma". It was the thing to put our diploma in later.
The choir stood aside to wait to sing "Alma mater".
It was quick and then down to our seats again.
Two seconds later we were to stand again and turn against the audience.
"This is the alumni of 2009" and so on.
The friends and family were clapping and one after another started to stand up.
What a feeling.
We started walking out just to stand in line to get our diploma.
Beautiful.
More pictures.
And theen we went to the Banana boat! Huge ice creams there! my oh my.
We ordered Banana splits. Elisa didn't know how big it is so she ordered a large one for herself. Gah. Me and Heather bought one together and we didn't even finish it.

Alumni of 2009.
