Conan's graduation speech.


It was really amusing to read this short story about graduation. It got me thinking back to my graduation and some of the things surrounding it that I don't know if I will ever forget. To start out I listened to this song by O.A.R. called Love and Memories, at the time this was a pretty big song to me. Mainly because it is catchy but also because love and memories are one of the few things in life that really stick with you. One of my favorite memories was when we had Wheaties with half & half and strawberries with our World Affairs teacher. The guy is kind of a cowboy to stereotype him and we had a box of Wheaties that sat in the front of the class everyday because of the constant food drive so he said on our last day of school we could bust it open as long as we brought the half &half and strawberries. So we brought the goods for graduation day and during our Senior Brunch we filled up on Wheaties, Half &Half, and strawberries. Other things that reading Conan's Graduation made me think about were the roommate thing and how if your roommate isn't weird then you are probably the weird one. This was funny because I knew my roommate from high school and we are pretty good friends but a couple of my friends form where I am from had random roommates and their roommates are weird kids.
