I thought I would never graduate high school. Then the day came when I finally did graduate. I graduated so long ago it is hard to remember what I felt on graduation day but, I will try to remember what it was like.

I remember the day before graduation I sat home playing Nintendo. Probably Mike Tyson's punch out and Top Gun two. Those were to of my favorite NES video games. I was a nerd back then, OK I am still a nerd but, at least now I am able to talk in public. Back in my high school days I suck to myself and had no social skills whatsoever. I could not even walk with my head up, I was always looking at the ground.

So now on the day of my graduation I got a bloody nose while I was waiting in the lounge to go into the gym for graduation. Luckily I was not in the gym graduating when I got the bloody nose that would have been horrible. So I went into the bathroom and got my nose fixed up. I sat around waiting the rest of the time.

I don't remember much about the actual graduation. I probably looked at the clock a lot. I don't remember who spoke or even receiving my diploma. But I do remember having the feeling of this can't really be happening, is this happening. I can't believe this. I wanted to run off the stage. I could not believe I was old enough to graduate high school.

Just after graduation was over and I was around the lounge area I remember a teacher telling me so in so is looking for you. Yep I had someone eases diploma and I had not noticed because I never looked at the diploma I got. Lucky for me the other person noticed they had my diploma. It would have been terrible to go home and find out I had the wrong diploma.

From the lounge are I went home. I don't remember saying goodbye to any of my classmates. It was such a relief to graduate. The greatest day of my life. Yep.
