Graduation Speech: I Am Crowd Member No. 5 :: Graduation Speech, Commencement Address

Well, my fellow graduates, this is re whole told(prenominal)y it. We ar each(prenominal) probably persuasion mixed emotions right now. Some feeling sweet relief that it is eventually done, over, and finished. Maybe a twinge of sadness and nostalgia because pretty much all you pay off sockn for a good majority of your life has come to an end. I am sure by now we hurt all heard that question, What are you firing to do after high civilize? Some of you do have definite plans and know just now what you are overtaking to be doing. But, if you are any affaire like me, you have probably rolled quite a few things around in your head and you have a pretty good idea of what you might do. Maybe all you have thought about is getting the heck out of here and encounter recent people. But no matter what you do or whoever you meet, those new people and places are going to have one less thing in common with you. They wont know what is was like going to a small schooldays and knowing everybodys face, or path to the lunch line on Wednesday for a hoagie, or hatching corny skits for assemblies, or marching in the parade at Homecoming. All of us in this room tonight have something in common, and high school is not something you forget. It only happens once and you cant go backside (For most of us anyway.) So since we cant stay here, we have to go somewhere else and make something of ourselves. But what are we going to do? What do we want to do? Sometimes, what we want to do isnt exactly what we end up doing. We all have dreams. Everyone does, like myself for example. I know exactly what I want to do, but it doesnt happen to be what everyone else likes to do as well .... and thats to act. Whether it be a commercial, on stage, or in a movie, I like to act. It is what I hit the hay doing. What do I have to lose in trying. What do all of you have to lose in pursuing your dreams? Im going to try my hardest to do what I love, even though members of my family and some of my friends are concerned that all I will get is a pimple cream commercial, or an insignificant role as Crowd phallus No.
