Officially a High School Graduate

just graduated today. feels good...i've been waiting for this since 5th grade. when i graduated 5th grade i thought i was done with school LOL. ah man i'm gonna miss all my friends, teachers, and such. i got dared by 3 teachers to try and fit my graduation cap over my head (i have a 'rediculous' hair style) lol. it was fun indeed..

nah, had planned on it but never took the ACT so i changed my mind. instead i'm gonna do another year of tech and learn a little more in depth about engines, tranmissions and such. hopefully i can get more certifications. i already have my brakes certification:

Coffession time for me now - avoid the trap I fell into while I was starting college , at the young age of 19 I landed a pretty good paying job with a pretty good company (I've done well over the years) when my folks left the country. I convinced myself that a wallet full of money made more sense in the short run.

Should've stuck with mechanical engineering.

Congrats!

Some day you will look back foundly on your High School Years! The good old days When Cars burned Gas & Tires.

My youngest Just graduated as well! It brought back a lot of memories as the ceremony was in the exact same stadium as my own graduation. My 30th reunion is coming up soon!

I think that officially makes me Old! Don't worry it happens to the best of us!

Regards,

Kc
