As you walk across the stage all 13 years of colorful memories flood your mind 

A memory wave of playgrounds, concerts, field days and field trips almost knock you over 

you look around at the people that you have known for years and may never see again 

In just a quick hour, all will start a new adventure down their own path 

many will journey to a university

some will drop out 

some will grow to become doctors and lawyers 

But your adventure begins elsewhere. 

Starting down your path of new beginnings

you find your purpose

your adventure begins at work.

As your name gets called you instantly snap out of the haze you were in 

after the deepest breath possible, the final steps on this page are taken 

the toss of your red cap turns the page to the next chapter
