As the man from Banzai would say: "It AAAALL OOOOVER!!!"

It was a very subdued day, with all the teachers I knew holding back thier emotions, as was I , to an extent. You can only brush so much aside with one-liners. Could anything else really be expected, at the end of the day? It's weird as such a huge commitment just comes to and end with scribbles on paper. I won't be forgetting the past six years in a hurry (some things more than others), but I am more than ready to embrace a future that's been all too bloody long in coming. If nothing more, my academy days have solidly defined the person I will become in future. Some of that is good, some bad. I leared that I could write pretty damned well there. I learned that I could act. I learnd what I really want to do with my life. As my biology teacher said to me today, "It's been an... Experience".

I'll drink to that. Here's to you, Banff Academy, and all that you have done for me and inflicted upon me.

Slainte.
