Farewell

So, Thursday was the last real day of school for me...ever. It was an extremely eventful day, starting with...graduating. Wow. I can't believe it's over. Everyone was all dressed up and then we walked in and got our diplomas and stuff and then they gave out the awards. After not getting any of the first five, I was a bit confused since Primi mentioned that I was getting one. But then, Primi stood up to give out the art award. And I got it! I'm still in shock, three days later. It's so surreal to have won the award that I wanted more than anything else. Anyways, after the last awards were handed out, Pugliese made his speech and then Primi's little "down-to-earth" talk. Both teachers got standing ovations from their classes! What else? Um...when the whole thing was over, I met up with Agnieszka and both of us just started crying uncontrolably. I don't even know if I know why! It was a weird feeling. We were happy and sad and nervous and scared and excited...all at the same time. Then, it was time for pictures. There are so many! And Agnieszka's brother just took some random pictures of us crying :P. It was fun. After a while, we left for the bus to go the restaurant. The food was pretty good. Then the dance came. It was uneventful until the end when the slow songs came on. But you can find out what happened with that for yourself. Then we realized that it wa the last song and the tears started coming. Honestly, I didn't stop crying for about two hours. It's one thing when you're going to see all these people again in highschool but it's another thing when you know your probably never going to see most of them EVER again because you're moving across the country. It's a scary feeling. I know I'll see my good friends again but I may never see Richard or Arin or Travis or any of my not-super-best-friends again. I miss those peope the most because I know I won't see them again. But people like Agnieszka and Michaela, I know I'll see them in November and talk to them all the time. It's tough.
Anyways...I guess I better go now. I have some more packing to do before tomorrow. I'm headed to the science centre. Bye for now!
