Today was a graduation day at SUU. Mandy and her new hubby Kevin graduated and a hardy congrats to them.
What the freak is up with graduation ceremony's. Pres Monson gave a amazing speech despite the fact that from the moment he stood up till he sat down the sentrum looked like the paparazzi at the Oscars. Flash flash flash flash flash. For a second I thought I would have a Cesare. But besides his awesomeness the student speaker was lets say very middle school commencement ceremony. I think she used more Awesome and like totally amazing than the entire movie Clueless. She was in rare form . Unfortunately one of the students had passed out and was receiving some medical attention so that distracted us from her speech. I hope the girl recovered and I would like to thank her for her distraction she really took one for the team and definitely earned that diploma. The only thing that would have made it better would have been a stirring rendition of "I believe I can fly" that is a definite sign of a quality graduation ceremony. I think all graduations have a rule to be a certain level of boring. If they were not boring the students would be terrified to leave but after three or four hours of torture they are more than happy to blow that Popsicle stand.

(Flapping Wings) I believe I can touche the sky. I think about it every night and day. "Whouuu" Spread my wings and fly away! Still one of the most hilarious things I have every seen. Thank you HHS class of 97. Thank you. If we hold on together. I know our dream will never die.
ReplyDeleteP.S. I love this song.
ReplyDeletedie, graduation songs! ours was that stupid sarah macloughlin slit-my-wrists-this-second-or-i'll-shoot-you song "i will remember you." i still despise it. i believe i can fly stinks bad. but in my opinion, nothing beats truly stupid grad songs like the land before time beauty. i really like the expression "blow this popsicle stand." i want to say it all the time. i have to go -- gotta blow this popsicle stand!!!
ReplyDeleteok my song was the dumbest, but there was no flapping!
ReplyDeleteJust as in youth youth, this blog seems to be Jonny and myself just goofing off and having Marie judge who is funnier. Still awesome. Hey guys we should dig out the old video camera, and watch are commercials when I come down the first of next week. love ya. I miss you guys. Jonny what did you think of the Last name song? Girl's don't get it. Sorry Ben's wife.
ReplyDeleteYes it is true in a moment of weakness I did flap. And I flapped hard and I flapped long. And i wish to this day I could erase all that stupid flapping from my memory. Go 97.
