get one of those inspirational speeches like the ones to discipline take English

tour met already killed some of us these have been our companions their faces

severe directly heads informed and lab partners teammates and car pools shared

reluctantly so now we are moving on what will be an equally treacherous road with

nothing to look for it too except for the inevitable alienation from the cool

people who if there is any justice in this cruel world will be waiting on a

sunday in our local restaurants assuming we have enough money to pay for meals

after spending our hard-earned wages on therapy so with this let us step within

the high school

good luck that's my grandfather my dad seemed like the norm and not to be a day

that would change our lives forever

that was a little bit of sunshine

I think we ought to take a moment to feel inspired by the words our

valedictorian Susie Jessa imagine Howard self-appointed to mcs for us to take

over thought they were opening in vegas we are here to present student elected

present for the 43rd consecutive year student I can be sure that your award to

mr. started not in water

well after so many years I don't know what to say anymore

mainly because at my age I have forgotten most of the English language

there is one thing that even old age can take away and that is the gift of

teaching the miracles that we see every day in the eyes of those who open their

minds to the world of knowledge miracles can happen

if you let them take it back with a Break let him breathe

I still wonder what it would have been like to be the thing that's his mom and

I were spread a better memory

the worst part of not being there is the feeling that you could have helped in

some way maybe even changed the outcome

I'll always remember what grandma used to say life is tiny so don't ever miss

the opportunity to spread your wings the summer but times like this i wonder if

maybe a little set best life sucks and then you die
