Graduation Speech

Hello everyone, welcome back to another blog post. Today's is going to be kind of long so don't say I didn't warn you.So basically our english teacher is making us write a graduation speech on our blogs, so if you find this boring don't blame me, go yell at her (the url is http://gmsbloggingwithjoy.blogspot.com/. Anyway let's get right into it.

Hello everyone, today is a very special day in the lives of all the eighth graders here at Golf. Soon we will be moving on from this great place and I think that I speak for most everybody when I say that we will miss it greatly. Our time here has been extremely eventful and I for one won't soon forget the memories that I have made here. I remember my first day of kindergarten at hynes. I was so afraid of being at a new school and with new people. After those first few weeks everything just seemed to fly by so quickly until we were off to Golf to start fifth grade. To us Golf was a massive difference from Hynes because it was huge. There were so many new things to learn, and new people to meet. Luckily for us our principal Ms. Chvojka was just starting at Golf as well and it helped a bit to know that we weren't the only ones starting at a new school.

With the start of a new school meant that we had much to learn about the way of things and just new material to cover in general. We had many amazing teachers to help us along the way including Mrs. Feinstein, Ms. Nelson, Mr. Carro, and Mrs. Joyner just to name a few. Fifth grade wasn't really that hard because we still had the same system as we did back at Hynes but then the year was over and we moved on to sixth grade.

With the start of sixth grade many things happened for example, we had to adjust to a new way of life at school. Rather than staying in one class, we were to travel around to many different classes to learn different subjects from different teachers. On the other hand sixth grade was nothing compared to what was to come in seventh grade.

In Seventh grade we were introduced to an entirely new subject, Spanish. With the extra year under our belts the work and stress began to build, and we soon realized that is was only going to get tougher still in eight grade and beyond. 

Then finally we reached eight grade and we realized that this was our last hurrah and that this was going to be the largest amount of work that we had ever done in a year. We took this challenge head on and we have been working hard for the duration of the year and now we have arrived at what is essentially the end of our time here at GMS.

I would like to say one final thank you to all of the wonderful teachers and staff who have helped us along the way, and remember to never lose your Cardinal Spirit, thank you for your time.
