High School Graduation Speech

May 26th, 2010 · No Comments · Personal Blog

Found this. Not even sure why it was created but I think it relates to my new graduation even tho I didn’t walk.

Hey I am Kyle Fasanella. Most of you know me out there and thoes that don’t  well you have been missing out. Most of you are expecting me to be funny or silly or do something unexpected but I have nothing for you today. Rather I like you to remember all the fun times these four years.

In three weeks from now, the seniors will graduate from Suncoast. I cannot even remember the countless times that I have said or heard one of us say that we can’t wait to get out of this place and move on. But now that the time has come, there is a huge part of me that is very excited about the new life that I will be starting at the University Of Central Florida, but there is also another side of me that has a different emotion about leaving Suncoast.

Strangely enough, I am pretty sad about leaving Suncoast. For four years, Suncoast has been a security blanket for me. These walls have protected me from things that you can’t even imagine. But what’s behind those walls is the thing that I am going to miss the most. Suncoast hasn’t just been a place that has educated me these past six years. Suncoast is who encouraged me when I needed support. Suncoast is who cared for me in the time of loss. That is what I am going to miss about this place.

But there is something more that I am going to miss and that is my friends. These guys behind me are not just my best friends, they are my family. This past year I have seen our class come together so much that it is obvious how close we all have gotten to be. There is a bond between all of us that will broken but not soon. Together, we have been through all the gains and all the failures, all the wins and all the losses, all the pain and joy. We have cried together, laughed together, celebrated with one another, supported each other, cared for each other, and loved each other. That is what makes us family.

I never thought I would be sad about my last day at this school, but today, I am sad because I am leaving a place that I love. I am jealous of you out there because you are still able to do the things that I won’t be able to ever do again, like raise hell in the library, yell in assembly, arrange the word seniors into other words at pep rallies. run around for not apparent reason, read the crazy writings on the bathroom stall walls, pull off a dang funny prank, Running in the elections., screwing around on CNN, and just laugh with one another. Those are the things that I have taken for granted that I truly am going to miss.

So, in closing, I challenge all of you to make best of the short time you have here because it flies by, I promise you that. Get to know the guys in your class and take care of each other. And to my fellow seniors, it has been a hell of ride and I want to thank all of you for your friendships. I hope that none of us forgets about this place that has brought us together. I will look forward to the times that we will meet again later on down the road of life. And it truly is an honor to walk across that stage with you all on graduation day and I am looking forward to that.
