My last official day as a highschooler 
The weather was SHIT BUM POO TERRIBLE why was it raining DURING OUR CEREMONYYYYYYYY. My hair was actually going insane from being rained on and all the humidity but whateverrrr.
Genuinely started the day off crying on the train because my parents didn't get me flowers for grad like apparently they didn't know you were supposed to get flowers for the day. It sounds like a privileged ahhh problem but your girl was upset ok? Anyways I sat across some juniors I know on the train which seems quite fitting. Bought myself flowers from woollies before school (miley cyrus flowers ahhh Im sorry).
The ceremony and all the graduation proceedings were so sweet I was on the verge of tears the whole damn time. The video in the hall to all the speeches had me so emotional, and I'm so fucking glad I was able to sit with a big group of wonderful people who I can call my friends, even if we aren't a friend group per se. Getting my teddy and bag signed was a logistical mess but I think I got most people to sign it! We got a start on photos (still waiting on that damn backrooms photo from the src?? girl??) and hugs and goodbyes. The captains speech genuinely had my ass in tears but I held it down, I even got a shoutout during Rina's portion of the speech but I lwk forgot what it was about now lmfao.
Also oh my god????? I didn't know I was so loved amongst juniors can you believe it. My Year 7 buddy all grown up now got me a little weighted panda bear plushie as a gift :((( she's so fucking cute I actually started crying :(( And my cute little coworkers also got me chocolates I am so touched oh my god genuinely in tears they are so cute. Also Lina got me a little gift bag with lollies and a sweet little message omg. I actually genuinely wish I had gotten to know her earlier god she is so sweet.
Actual clapout was a blur, but I got photos with all my teachers which I'm glad for, and all my younger friends too. I was able to deliver Ms K's gift of chocolates to her, and the geo class got together to give Ms B her gift too, and we just all hung around super long at the staffroom because geo was a pretty special class. I'm still super proud of the card/poster idea although idk if Ms B will put it up anywhere.
All the emotional goodbyes done (we were literally gonna see eachother tomorrow too) the scellig gang went out for food. it was difficult choosing what because we were all already so overloaded but the weather called for malatang so we just went to the food court ahah. Food was bomb (can malatang ever go wrong??) and we slowly made our way to the secondhand bookshop for a bit before I had to go home.
Sorta cried at the dinner table while I sorted the whole flowers thing out with my parents because my mum was being a bum and not speaking to me/mad at me because of her own insecurity at not knowing australian customs like. Imho can she not just try harder and find out it's not like she's the only immigrant mother in this country but whatever I get that she just felt guilty.
