School is almost done and I just know that the ending is going to be anti-climatic, a huge let down. I spent almost a year slaving away with these people. Every week, in only two days, we had six classes and drove four hours. During our time someone got married. Someone lost a relative in an accident. Someone found out that they had been pregnant for five months. I got pissed drunk and puked on my pants so I had to do a presentation in my pajamas. I had a huge allergic reaction and had to visit the hospital. I got turned away from the border because I could have been a threat to national security (my next post). But when the last class comes there will be no graduation, no party, not anything.
I decided it would be a good idea to write a speech to have closure to the class. I thought it would be so easy considering all the things we've gone through, but I was wrong. All I could come up with was sentimental shit. I really thought I could add humour to the speech but I disappointed myself with cliches and blah blah blah. I still have a few weeks left so I hope I can revise some life into it by then. While I was writing it I realized that by doing this I self-elected myself as valedictorian. I think my head is getting too big.
