Senior Ball and Senior Boards

Well, well, well I am graduating in approximately 10 days, and to be more exact, in 237 hours. Uh huh uh huh uh huh. It seems to be no coincidence that the most recent situations in my life directly pertain to my graduation. Senior ball was held the last weekend in May and it was quite splendid. For dinner a large group of fellow seniors and I cruised to Seattle to dine at the chic P.F. Changs, a gourmet restaurant specializing in Chinise cuisine. The food there was delectable. After dinner the dance commenced aboard the "Royal Argosy" a gorgeous cruise ship. It was a great experience. Near the end of the dance the DJ made a toast with the Class of 2007 and I must say I experienced such a feeling of joy and happiness that it is difficult to explain. I suppose the best way would be to compare how Harry Potter would feel after snatching a snitch to win for the Gryffyndor Lions in a quidditch match. It was that good. Next event was by far less extravagant, but nonetheless exhilirating. I performed a 12 minute speech to a panel of judges and recieved my ticket to graduation...a certificate saying I have completed my culminating project. This felt most like it would when Harry Potter was about to win the Tri Wizard Tournament...(although my results were far less dramatic). All in all I am on my way to being a learned man with an official high school diploma. I am speechless.
