Graduation Speech -- Graduation Speech, Commencement Address

As I think back upon the previous four years, somehow or another it appears my time at Kiper has been a great deal like a day at the Magic Kingdom. From the second I found out about Disneyland, I realized that I needed to go. I checked the days until I arrived, much the way that I tallied the days until I left Harbor Pointe to move over to Kiper. Time passed so gradually in light of the fact that I was envisioning the incredible occasions ahead. Toward the finish of center school, my cohorts and I thought we were so cool since we got the chance to make that outing to somewhere fun and energizing. On the main day of secondary school, we rose early like enthusiastic children prepared for a day of play. At Disneyland, individuals line up right on time to get their tickets and start their charmed day. As rookies, we arranged ahead of schedule to get our class list, unfathomably excited to at last be here. Our heads were brimming with the tales we had caught wind of how energizing it would be. Much to our dismay what anticipated us. With our affirmation pass, generally known as the timetable, we too got a guide. Like Disneyland's, our own had photos of the ways to take, prompting our differed goals. Some insightful senior had really shading coded mine, so I knew which course to go. Our maps prompted the science lobby, the English corridor and the Performing Arts Center, while Disneyland's directed to Adventure Land, Toon Town and Main Street. Their guide recorded different spots to snatch food like the Rainforest Cafe, Mickey's Kitchen and Rocket Pizza, while our guide flaunted four: the Commons, the East Campus Cafeteria, the Student Store and, God help us, the candy machines. With 10 minutes to go, the class of 2003 flung themselves into the horde of hustling understudies. A portion of the green beans were essentially so happy to be there that the mod didn't... ... as a rookie and gazed up at the block structure known as Kiper. It is immense that we have grown up so rapidly and are going to leave until the end of time. Never again will we as a whole be in a similar spot in time. Every beneficial thing must in the long run end, however the knowledge, the companions and the encounters that have transformed us will stay a piece of us until the end of time. It is incredible that the confirmation pass has lapsed and the entryways are going to close. It is time that we jump out of a storybook dream and into this present reality. After four years, as graduating seniors and youthful grown-ups, the time has come to stow the stuff we gathered, move once again into the vehicle and drive not far off to the future, failing to look back. The time has come to travel out into the world, to make our places as people, a gathering no more and to make our own one of a kind imprint upon the world. Congrats, Class of 2003!
