Graduation Ceremony 08

"Graduation (Friends Forever)"

And so we talked all night about the rest of our lives
Where we're gonna be when we turn 25
I keep thinking times will never change
Keep on thinking things will always be the same
But when we leave this year we won't be coming back
No more hanging out cause we're on a different track
And if you got something that you need to say
You better say it right now cause you don't have another day
Cause we're moving on and we can't slow down
These memories are playing like a film without sound
And I keep thinking of that night in June
I didn't know much of love
But it came too soon
And there was me and you
And then we got real blue
Stay at home talking on the telephone
We would get so excited and we'd get so scared
Laughing at ourselves thinking life's not fair
And this is how it feels

As we go on
We remember
All the times we
Had together
And as our lives change
Come Whatever
We will still be
Friends Forever

So if we get the big jobs
And we make the big money
When we look back now
Will our jokes still be funny?
Will we still remember everything we learned in school?
Still be trying to break every single rule
Will little brainy Bobby be the stockbroker man?
Can Heather find a job that won't interfere with her tan?
I keep, I keep thinking that it's not goodbye
Keep on thinking it's a time to fly
And this is how it feels

Will we think about tomorrow like we think about now?
Can we survive it out there?
Can we make it somehow?
I guess I thought that this would never end
And suddenly it's like we're women and men
Will the past be a shadow that will follow us 'round?
Will these memories fade when I leave this town
I keep, I keep thinking that it's not goodbye
Keep on thinking it's a time to fly

I hope we did not say our last goodbye last friday aft e ceremony. Some are going overseas, enlisting, going back to their hometown while the majority of us have already started working. Many first time experiences were encountered in the past 3 years in design sch. Taking photos with a manual SLR, developing prints in the darkroom, using mac, staying in sch past the midnight and the list goes on...

I'm very grateful for the few lecturer who have inspired and encouraged me. Lecturers like james, pat, yongkin, lille, mdm chan, lynette who never fail to agree with us for more consultation days, they who have always been there helping us with our problems, they who triggers our thoughts when we're 'stucked', they who have guided us through the last 4 months of our final year projects.

It's never easy, but we've overcome it together! Last but not least, i'm glad to have such supportive parents. They supported to go for the interview and allowed me to make my decision. Thanks love for being understanding to my project n cca commitments too.
