Hey Andy !!!! Congratulations!!! I remember that whole thing... walking on a stage... Everyone was nervous.. except me I think, cuz I had been singing and speaking before groups of people a lot by then... and then there was the girl who fainted because it was a nastily hot day and all that...(oh yeah.. she was in marching band and had to quit because she passed out on the field during practice...) Good old Emily....

Well have a blast!!! You made it, so be proud of yourself !!!! I am !!!!!

Huge hugs...

BamBam

P.S. Did you decide whether you are going to school in Wisconsin or not?



Celebrate your life... embrace your love... Become intimate with your place in forever !!!

Sighs, I jsut need to relax, but what can I say we are mixing all sorts of my faorite evils.... eating out, my grade, being dressed up, it's like prom all over again. At least this time I am planning to leave way early. My dressing up, well lets just say there is a button down shirt over my t shirt, so much for me wearing nice clothes ya know.

I'm gonna reply to myself cuz I am that cool. I went to the senior dinner and it was ok. I mean I enjoyed it. Not in the rip roaring party sort of way, but in the quiet existence in the back of the room happy to see my friends happy sort of way.

They did a video yearbook and I saw for the first time everything I missed out on, except I wasnt really upset about skipping any of it. I dunno, it was funny to watch my class cheering at old pictures of them selves and so forth. I thought this was ironic, maybe you will maybe you wont. I am incapable of picking myself out of a picture when I was young, I hoenstly don't recognize what I look like!

In exchange my best friends Brenda sat there and since we were always together in pics showed me which ones i was in and the such. it was pretty cool. She got a kick out of me not being able to pick myself out of a line up. ANyway, the food was ok. the green beans were very crunchy, my class hated it. I thought it was great, vegetables are supposed to crunch...

I had to leave early, well my whole enterouge did in fact since I was driving. We had to get one guy home by 11 before his parents flipped shit he was at "work". I made record time through the streets, clocking out between 70 and 80 mph a lot of the time. it was great for once I was being cheered on for speeding.

Driving like hell to get home before the rents flipped out... gotta be home by 12, and it is 3 minutes to and 10 miles to drive !!!!! ARGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! I will say it didn't happen to me much because i was pretty responsible for a teenager compared to my friends...
It is always a little weird to me seeing pics of me when I was younger. Kind of like a surreal thing going on. But I always remember those people that were a constant in my life in high school... like Mitch, Dave (pisshead), Craig (dickhead), and a bunch of others. Wonder what life would be like now if I had been open and out in high school...
Michael, my other half, was totally out in high school. He says he cried a lot when other kids picked on him... not because he is a sissy, but because it just hurt having people who once were his friends hating him when they found out about him being gay. (Consequently, he has become one of the finest gentlemen I have ever met in my life.)
Now how did this bcome about me???? SORRY !!!!!

I hope you are having the time of your incredible life!!! Enjoy it and come to Wisconsin for school !!!

Where do you want to go to school? What is your major going to be? Can I help... seeing as how I live here????

Let me know, Andy!!!!

Huge hugs....
BamBam:-P Razz Razz

Hey dude, IM me someday and we will chat more, i am going to Northland College and right now I am an Outdoor education major. Before anyone starts no that is not like GYM CLASS! I will have nothing to do with schools, or gym class Smile Everyone seems to think thats what I am going for.

Graduation is tomorrow and I am nervous, I dont think i have eaten in days, just stared and picked at my food... I don't know why I am nervous, all I need to do is walk with my best friend ever and then sit down then walk across stage to grab my diploma. It isn't that hard, I dunno it will all go well, I just need to calm down.

I had a lot i wanted to say to a certain friend of mine, in the end I said basically nothing and we just hugged. It's ok, maybe I'll say the words I wanted to later, now wasn't the right time I believe.

Andy, just enjoy the day. When all is said and done, you will look back and say "I enjoyed it, but I am glad that is over." Seems to me I remember thinking that now that High school was over, I was free to live my life. Now I wish I was more mature, but I made it this far!!!!

I encourage you to enjoy the cap and gown thing. Great memories. Lots of fun. Just don't drink too much... don't drink and drive... and don't drive stupid. Love your life... you get to live it !!!!!

Let me know when you get to Wisconsin. Maybe Michael and I will take a drive up and visit.

By the way... AWESOME MAJOR !!!!!!!!! I am kinda envious that you are going to do so much fun stuff if you stay with your major!!!

Hugs,
BamBam
