Last Wednesday was the graduation ceremony, and it was extremely long and boring.
We had to arrive early, at approximately 6:30, because we wanted a good parking spot. When we went to stand in line, the line curved all the way around the stadium and seemed like it would be an eternity before we were let in.
When the ceremony started, there was a lot random talking by the principal, student class counsel people, superintendent(I think), and valedictorian.
The one surprise of the night was finding out my neighbor was actually a genius. He was ranked top 5%, was in national honors society, many honors programs, scored a perfect 36 on the ACT, got into Northwesterns medical program, and many other amazing acomplishments. I've known him for 10+ years, and all this time I never knew he was a genius. Wow, good stuff. Also in case you were wondering, the valedictorian was Hanjay Wang.
Finally at around 10:30, I got to leave and go home and wake up the next day for school, while my brother got to stay home and sleep. What a long boring night.
