My Life in Snapshots: Kacey's Story

Chapter 34

Hey!! It's been awhile since I last posted. Long weekened. Well...kinda. Saw Silent House with a friend, and thought it was a bad movie. Then got to hang out with an old friend of mine. I also just got a call saying my auditions for the talent show are tomorrow. AHH!! Hope I do good. Anyways, here's Chapter 34, the second to the last chapter.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When I look back in the past when I would think my life is like a roller coaster. Being born to great parents started with a big drop. I’ve had ups and downs like my parents dying, but having sisters to be by my side to keep me happy. I don’t know what the experience would have been like if I didn’t do the things I had done. I was participating in many things. I was taking photos, I was working, I was spending time with the people I loved. I didn’t just sit on the couch and watch everything around me go away. At one moment I would be having fun, being in love, and the next minute I could be having an allergic attack. Having my sisters, Logan, Hayden, Lauren, Mike, Michael, Kathey, Margret, Mrs. Keller, anyone who I have been close with made my life better because it was shared with them.

As I stare at myself in the mirror wearing my cap and gown my stomach was going around in flips. I was nervous, I just couldn’t believe I was finally graduating. Graduating college.

“Come on Kacey, you don’t want to be late for your own graduation.” Alexia said interrupting me and my thoughts.

I left my bathroom and headed outside. I got in the car and drove to the school. I was so nervous I couldn’t speak.

“You nervous?” Alexia asked.

“Yeah.” I spoke.

“You will do fine Kacey, you always do.” she said.

“Thanks.” I said grabbing her hand and squeezing it. I parked the car and I had to join up with the rest of my class. “You guys wait for Hayden to come at the entrance. She just texted me saying she’s almost here.” I told them.

“Okay.” Alexia said as I walked fast inside the school. 

Walking inside the school there was my prince waiting for me.

“There you are.” he said.

“Here I am.” I smiled.

“You look great.” 

“You don’t look bad yourself.”

“Lets go join the class, we don’t want to be late.” he said as we held hands to the gym. 

Walking in my stomach was even more nervous than it was this morning.

“Class of 2011 get in your line!” the principal yelled.

“I’ll see you later.” Logan said kissing me as we parted.

We all then started walking out the gym doors and onto the football field. There were a lot of people in the stands waiting for all of us to graduate. Sitting in the chairs I still was shaking.

“Thank you parents, friends, family for joining Marian’s 2011 graduation.” Principal Brown said as there were a thunder of claps. “Okay, now for the class of 2011 we have Brandon Applegate, Steven Awhite, Dianne Banks, Rachel Bard, Kacey Berk.”

It was my chance, this was it, I was finished with high school. I shook the principals hand and I grabbed my diploma. My diploma. I looked up and I saw Alexia, Taryn, Hayden, Lauren, Mike, Kathey up in the stands cheering and clapping for them. I gave them a smile and sat down at my seat.
