Graduation Speech -- Graduation Speech, Commencement Address

As I look back upon the past quaternary years, in some ways it seems c are my time at Kiper has been a lot like a day at the Magic Kingdom. From the jiffy I heard about Disneyland, I knew that I wanted to go. I counted the days until I got there, much the way that I counted the days until I left Harbour Pointe to migrate over to Kiper. Time passed so tardily because I was anticipating the great times ahead. At the end of middle school, my classmates and I thought we were so cool because we got to make that trip to someplace mutant and exciting. On the first day of high school, we got up early like eager kids ready for a day of play. At Disneyland, people byplay up early to get their tickets and begin their enchanted day. As freshmen, we seamed up early to get our class list, incredibly thrilled to finally be here. Our heads were full of the stories we had heard about how exciting it would be. Little did we recognize what awaited us. With our admission pass, commonly known as the schedule, we too got a map. Like Disneylands, ours had pictures of the paths to take, leading to our varied destinations. just about thoughtful senior had actually color-coded mine, so I knew which direction to go. Our maps led to the science foyer, the English hall and the Performing Arts Center, while Disneylands led to Adventure Land, Toon Town and briny Street. Their map listed various places to grab sustenance like the Rainforest Cafe, Mickeys Kitchen and arise Pizza, while our map boasted four the Commons, the East Campus Cafeteria, the Student Store and, idol help us, the vending machines. With 10 minutes to go, the class of 2003 hurled themselves into the crowd of hustling students. Some of the freshmen were simply so glad to be there that the mod didnt... ... as a freshman and stared up at the brick edifice known as Kiper. It is incomprehensible that we have grown up so quickly and are about to leave forever. Never again will we all be in the same place in time. A ll good things moldiness eventually end, but the wisdom, the friends and the experiences that have changed us will remain a part of us forever. It is unbelievable that the admission pass has expired and the furnish are about to close. It is time that we leap out of a storybook vision and into the real world. Four years later, as graduating seniors and young adults, it is time to pack the baggage we collected, climb back into the car and drive down the pathway to the future, never looking back. It is time to journey out into the world, to make our places as individuals, a group no longer and to make our own alone(p) mark upon the world. Congratulations, Class of 2003
