Does anyone remember memories from their high school graduation? My last day of school is later today (really it’s just a practice ceremony) and my ceremony is next Sunday. To be honest it’s pretty bittersweet. I’ll miss high school but I’m glad to be out.

I actually don't! I ended up being very, very sick for my HS graduation. It wasn't contagious but I was miserable and unable to focus on hardly anything. All I remember is clenching my hands tightly, as I was sitting at the end of a row, trying not to sway too obviously and saying to myself over and over again "Do not faint. Do not pass out! You'll fall in the aisle and the whole stadium will see you!" We had a very large high school and hundreds of kids at my graduation, so it was a bit of a concern.

How about you, did you attend a large school? I hope your ceremony is absolutely lovely and you have many wonderful memories!

My senior class is about 80 some students and the total population is 300 some. So not huge but not tiny.

My high school was very small. Our graduating class had less than one hundred students. I graduated high school back in 2016. High school was a rough time for me. School in general wasn't the best part of my life, and it is a part of my life that I would rather forget about. However, if it weren't for being bullied, I probably would not be the person I am today. Yes, there are parts of my life I would change if it were possible, but those same things have shaped me into the person I am today.

I don't want to get off-topic here, even if that is literally the name of the board, but I do remember my high school graduation. I have social anxiety, so receiving my diploma was quite difficult. Walking past a bunch of students and their parents, where you are the center of attention and everyone is acknowledging you, isn't the most comfortable thing in the world. However, I am very excited to be out of high school and doing what I want in life.

My graduating class at my school was an estimated ~650 students (yeah, sorta big school). I didn't even go to my graduation ceremony. Nor did I go to any proms. Tbh the only school event I went to was senior banquet, which was a total waste of $20 and an evening I couldn't spent playing video games instead.

Though I did go to my best friend's graduation party, which was something I guess.

Yeah. We went to a Chinese buffet and had a whole room reserved to ourselves. There was cake and strangers were congratulating me. ^^

The biggest memory I had of my high school graduation was towards the end of the ceremony, we had a huge water balloon fight. We all had water balloons under our chairs and it was outside. I was the unfortunate one to get hit by not just one but two plastic water bottles to the dome. Afterwards, a few of my close buddies and I went to the pool to hang out.

I graduated in 2008, with a class of nearly 200 students. We were a decent sized city that has now grown into an even bigger one.
