Saturday, April 16
school's out forever.
Well last night was the party at Scott, Manny and Alain's. It was fun. We had a baby champagne graduation toast, drank stuff, the usual. Thursday was our year end ceremony and an impromptu party at Joe's. Also fun. How can you go wrong drinking whisky straight? Hah. Here's a photo from last night (incidentally the only photo on my camera:
This is going to be a nostaligic post I think. Let's start with some lyrics from Semisonic:
Closing time - open all the doors and let you out into the world
Closing time - turn the lights on over every boy and every girl.
Closing time - one last call for alcohol, so finish your whiskey or beer.
Closing time - you don't have to go home but you can't stay here.
Closing time - time for you to go back to the places you will be from.
Closing time - this room won't be open 'til your brothers or you sisters come.
So gather up your jackets, and move it to the exits - I hope you have found a friend.
Closing time - every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end.
Who knew four years could be so long and still be so short? First day at OUC, many days spent on the couch in the student lounge, the Bowlerama, concerts--Bif Naked with LiveOnRelease; The Tragically Hip with Sam Roberts; Wakefest with Sam Roberts, Dakona, Gob and Sloan; Bif Naked with Dakona; Brian Adams with Colin James; Nickelback with Staind; Bif Naked with Todd Kerns and Dead Celebrity Status--getting accepted to UCC's journalism program, living here, karaoke with Kristyl, Heroes with Lisa and Jen, so many fun nights with everyone, rock trivia, lacrosse in the summers, Alexander Keith's, Bailey's, the great Amaretto discovery, hockey games with Josh...I'm gonna stop here because there's just too much to try to comprehend at this time.

There are too many songs that can sum up my life in university, so I think I'll close with the cliched yet quintessential grad song:
Another turning point
A fork stuck in the road
Time grabs you by the wrist
Directs you where to go
So make the best of this test
And don't ask why
It's not a question
But a lesson learned in time
It's something unpredictable
But in the end is right
I hope you had the time of your life
So take the photographs
And still frames in your mind
Hang it on a shelf of
Good health and good time
Tattoos of memories
And dead skin on trial
For what it's worth
It was worth all the while
It's something unpredictable
But in the end is right
I hope you had the time of your life Green Day-Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)
