I said we are going to have our Graduation Ceremony on the 30th

... let's talk about it first.

It was like having a sample, sneak-peak at our class. Anyone who could enter the ante-room where we were before the whole ceremony started could have known all about us and about our the past two years of our lives during that 1 hour.

Ive made a list of the highlights here:
  •  First Sn forgot the song she had to bring (Graduation-Vitamin C, I believe)
  • Then Hn got the song but because of the 'mixed signals'* she had had the previous day (ooh, I am soo angry) she got a USB
  • Mr TM, as always, chose to remember the signal that was not followed... I was about to write sooo, sooo much more but somewhere along the road my parents had taught me not to backbite... so I am stopping here..
  • UB1 was going around being the annoying guy.. and Hn said what she had said too many times in the past two years.. maira tumhara koi mazaq hai?
  • UB2 came late 
  • Sn had problem finding a good, matching scarf
  • Some people wore sneakers with their suit.
  • Half of the people wore tie-less suits (this and the one above are comments I heard floating around.. so I don't take responsibility for their authenticity)
  • M,Q got really mad at Mr. TM saying rude stuff
  • Mr. TM tried to cover it up
  • The ceremony was very disorganized... more like a last minute thing, I believe.. We did not have a Chief Guest.. not, as the parents were told, because the country needs the leaders more than a stupid grad ceremony.. but because the person responsible for it FORGOT ABOUT it... or did not care about it... Also the person who traditionally gives out the prizes was not there... most prolly (ok, I m being negative and badgumaan here..) because who can come on a day's notice...
  • AA was chewing gum. 
  • People booed when their behated (I think I get credit for making this word)  person gave a speech.
  • Someone forgot someone (though all their lives they were supposed to be best of friends) in their speech.
  • Some people couldn't get over praising some people and then taking the credit for it.
  • People said AAG was crying.. and said other stupid stuff like c'mon AAG you should stand up and clap
  • Fas was "embarrassed" when we were going up the hall.. and he told a random person to join the line of graduates and not shy about it.. lol.. and he felt someone looked like a "lecturaar" and like a "bookworm" in her graduates' attire :P
  • Oh, and before I forget, people were fighting!
    I understand why you can't believe it.. but, sadly, it's the truth!

Ok, you know what, I am not always as cynical/pessimistic.. (Did I tell you it was at this school that I met the most cynicalest woman ever) I really am not much of a complainer..In fact, most of the things here are what, for me, are the things that makes the whole experience so special and unique.. I mean, it's common to come across normal people.. but not many people have the privilege of belonging to a class of eccentrics. For one, I would never have had any juicy gossip to share with my sister... especially about Fas :D

So, I was saying that I actually enjoyed the whole ceremony because none of us had put up any pretenses just because it was the last day of our being together.. no one was fake (wink).. 

The only thing that makes me mad is the 'mixed signals' thing. Ok, the thing is that I was working with Mr. TM on some project and he would give me a hundred different instructions... you know how you talk about different possibilities such as we could get it done this way, or that way, or that these ways etc....  Then, when I ended up doing my task 'this way' he would create a storm about why the work wasn't done that way... get it?

and to prove my point.. I will be write another piece soon! 
Till then,
cya!
