"You are now ready, willing and more than able to grasp the torch that we bestow upon you." "May your years ahead continue to be characterized by empathy, compassion, objectivity and a willingness to take risks." My principle spoke as I slick teared up in my assigned seat at my graduation ceremony with my sap ass. They had already called our names and we all walked across the stage, diplomas in hand baby! Now we're sitting through these boring ass speeches luckily its the last one which means it's my principle Mrs. Huff extra ass, and it was almost time to turn our tassels.
"May you always lead by example and work hard and play straight. May your successes be many and your tribulations be few and far between. We wish you everything that you so richly deserve in the years ahead - it has been an honor and a privilege watching your progress and success! Please rise" we all stood up I looked to my family & friends in the crowd who went completely all out with the support merch.
"You may turn your tassels on the count of three, ladies and gentleman the Meadowcreek High Class Of 2021."
Mrs. Huff counted "123"
"AHHHHH" I screamed as we turned our tassels I meant to record but fuck itt. I hugged the people sitting next to me and walked off to go find my people
"Kay" I heard my dad (48) call out holding on to my mom(45)

"I'm so proud of you baby" my mom hugged me crying
"thank you mommy" I smiled taking the flowers my dad was handing me hugging him as well. My brother Tory (23)

"Girl me being here is a gift plus tax" my big sister spat
"You should've stayed where df you was could've got me a cup of ice from race trac for your seventy five cent ass" I rolled my eyes my brother started laughing as I kept looking around
