Title: Graduation
Post by: Anonymous_Lulz on May 25, 2007, 08:17:28 AM
No, this has nothing to do with anything Jrock or music at all, but it still belongs here.

now, on to the topic.  Who here has finally Graduated?

Tonight was my grad night, so im still pretty crazed about the whole thing.  there was a total of 843 seniors there and i was right in the middle of them all.

after it was all done and i got home, i counted out about $300 in grad money for me to spend. the rest (some $500-700) is going into savings, stocks, and gas.


so how about the rest of you. i know im not the only one who got out of school.

i didn't get anything special for graduation. though i 'graduated' (i got my GED due to being sick a lot so yeah, i didn't really go through the whole shebang) back in '03.

now if i actually went to college again instead of focusing on starting my own business, maybe, lol.

back on topic, my cuz finally graduated from college with a teaching degree.  cum laude, and after 5 years! XD

its incredibly easy isn't it?  kinda wish i had gotten to go to high school more, though.  i missed out on a lot of things and regret it, but it was pretty much impossible unless i wanted to graduate when i was 20.

depends on where you live.  in the US (east coast) schools (HS and college) are graduating now so it didn't seem weird to me.

I graduated (GED) in 2005 due to being hospitalized that whole year, so I couldn't keep up with my senior year schooling. I don't regret it any. I was able to go to college but i've postponed that until this year where i'm going to become a professional counselor.

I graduated a couple of weeks ago. I have around 300 bucks left that I might save. x.x Ugh why did I spend the past two weeks playing WoW non stop? Now the whole 'adult' phase is starting to sink in a bit. Kinda sucks but it's not that bad.

The crapiest thing about graduation is I won't be seeing a lot of people I knew for years anymore, and if I do it'll probably just be once or twice. Hell, I miss some of them already. lol.

Dunno if I'll be able to go to college this fall though.  :-\ I still haven't found a college in mind and have to do my ACT in a week or two. Bah. Need to look for a music school..

If you mean high school graduation, then I graduated a couple years ago.  I couldn't wait to get out of high school...  It was all kind of like "whatever."  The actual graduation ceremony was so boring, and I cannot recall any presents or money I got, but I must have received something.

If my grades from University stay the same, then I don't know if I'll graduate at all.  I really need to start caring, haha.

Why do I feel old on the internet, but so SO young in real-life?

My graduation from school is so long ago it isn't even funny anymore. But hopefully I'll graduate from university soon.  ::)

And I like the word 'chump'. It's kinda like Champ, just funnier.

Post by: Do As Eternity 6 on June 05, 2007, 08:40:09 PM
same thing with one of my friends ..i don't think she has enough credits to graduate with us and she's going to just get her
GED instead =_= she wants to graduate with us and we all want her too but she's been letting everything slip since last year...its cuz she's too lazy =_= we've been trying to help her in every way possible but she makes alot of false promises and tries for a bit but then stops again...hmmm and she didn't really start shaping up till this term but i think it's too late and she's kind of resigned to it not happening fuuu =_=

^ that really sux, its always hard to see a friend do things like that cuz it worries u. i have two friends who are like that. one of them is exactly like u described ur friend (but she still has senior year of next year.... but she still has too many classes to fit in) and i have another one who just stopped going to school altogether. shes gone like 3 days out of the past 3 months. last time i talked to her, she was still under the impression that she was going to graduate with the rest of us. but we already know of at least two teachers who seriously arent going to pass her and she needs to pass both of them in order to graduate. i wish she would listen to us when we try to get her to go to school :/

yea it's relly hard especially when you try your best to help >.< i'm really worried about her but there's only so much you can do and well she has the support of her friends so hopefully everything pans out ok for her in the future =/
