How bout a flashback, an almost 10 year flashback. To the days of high school football games, pep rallies, Snowman (winter formal dances), Homecoming and all the socialite clubs one could join. Oh yes, these were my high school days….among other things.
I wound up taking Senior pictures to fully ‘document’ that my parents first born was officially leaving the nest and joining the college life.
Congratulations!
Today is your day.
You’re off to Great Places!
You’re off and away!
You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes
You can steer yourself
any direction you choose.
You’re on your own. And you know what you know.
And YOU are the guy who’ll decide where to go.
You’ll look up and down streets. Look ‘em over with care.
About some you will say, “I don’t choose to go there.”
With your head full of brains and your shoes full of feet,
you’re too smart to go down any not-so-good street.
And you may not find any
you’ll want to go down.
In that case, of course,
you’ll head straight out of town.
It’s opener there
in the wide open air.Out there things can happen
and frequently do
to people as brainy
and footsy as you.And when things start to happen,
don’t worry. Don’t stew.
Just go right along.
You’ll start happening too.OH!

Believe it or not, I still can’t believe I graduated almost 8 years ago. Where has the time gone? Seems like only yesterday I walked across the staged & grabbed my diploma…..not really. Our class actually had their diplomas held on account of “how we acted in Rayleigh Chapel”. Let’s just say….there were beach balls…fog horns….silly string…streamers…those mini “pop” streamer things…and a whole lot more. My grandparents had gone to their fair share of Graduations, but this was the first “rowdy” one they had ever been to. Way to make 2004 memorable Class of 2004!
