I honestly don’t know what to say.
I don’t want to reiterate what everyone else has already said. I don’t know how
I feel about graduating. I don’t know if I’m going to miss da Vinci. I’m not
sure if I’m just being cynical or emotionless. Whatever. The school isn’t
what’s important to me. What’re important to me are my friends. Da Vinci just
provided us with a forum in which to work out our problems, let go of our
anger, figure out how to make the world better, expand our points of view, and
better define ourselves for ourselves. That’s what’s important. Sure, I may not
have met my friends if it weren’t for da Vinci, so I guess I owe the school
some credit. But when we all move on from this school, we’ll find new forums in
which to explore ourselves and new people to help us. So who cares where you
are as long as you make good connections?
I have a group of friends that with
always rant with me, are always up for discussion, and will craft with me. And
really, what more can I ask for? I suppose I should thank them for allowing me
to talk their ears off for four years. I know I’ve done a lot of yelling, and
so have you. I know I get angry a lot, and sometimes I take it out on you, but
you all give as well as you get. Thanks for always knowing how to make me laugh
when I’m p**sed off. It helps. I’ll keep trying to do the same. I’m not going
to say goodbye because if you mean anything to me, you’re going to see me
again. Even if you don’t see me, there’s always Facebook.
And thanks
for sharing your food with me in lunch.
