All Because of a Camping Trip

" Marie, Chloe, get up, it's 7.00, we have to prepare for graduation! " Janet said from outside the door. She knocked one more time and continued heading to the other dorms. We got up and gathered all our spirits that are still snoring away in their world, then we both took turns to shower.

Marie showered first. Didn't take her long, she went out with her bathrobe. Then it was my turn. I showered. Trying my best to do it fast, we have to be in the hall ready at 8.30. After I finished, Marie and I got ready.

Marie was wearing a baby pink mini dress. The skirt part was puffy which made her look a lot like a ballerina. She looked a lot like a ballerina. That dress suits her a lot. She tied her hair in a high ponytail with her baby pink scrunchie. She put on her white high heels and took her white purse. She looked like she was ready for prom! Too bad we don't have prom here in college.

I put on my off the shoulders white dress. Off the shoulders is my favorite type of dress. I let my hair down and styled it a bit. I took my white sparkly clip and put it on my hair. I took my baby blue purse and hung it on my shoulders. Lastly, I took my white sparkly heels and put them on.

Alas, we were ready. We opened the door and walked elegantly to the hall.

Everyone was in their own popularity circle. Marie and I headed to ours.

" Hey, guys! " I said.

" Heyy!! " Janet, Candace, and Willow said at the same time.

Janet, Candace, and Willow are my friends, not as close as Marie is, but we are pretty close together. We have our own popularity circle, not very popular, but it's on a pretty good stage.

Janet was wearing an emerald green off the shoulders long dress. She looked a lot like Princess Tiana, minus the frog of course. Her hair was braided and styled to make it look pretty. She has a black purse hung on her right shoulders and she has emerald green heels. She looked as glimmering and as pretty as the real emerald.

Candace, the goth girl, well she likes everything black. Candace looked stunning in black. She was wearing a gorgeous black halter dress with black roses all over the fabric. Her hair was let down like usual, but this time it's curled. She has a black purse and also black high heels. All black. But it doesn't matter. Her outfit looks STUNNING!

Willow, she looked gorgeous in her navy blue lace dress. Her hair tied up in a bun and decorated with several flower clips. She has a navy blue purse that is decorated with white pearls. She was wearing navy blue heels which made her look tall. She definitely looks as dark as night, but as beautiful as the shining stars.

" We really gotta hang first before we go our separate ways " Janet said.

All of us nodded sadly. Graduation day is one of the days you get mixed feelings. On one side you are happy because you are finally graduating, you have achieved a new thing in your life. But on the other hand you are sad because you will have to leave your best friends.

" Stop the long face already! We still got a whole day to hang together, let's make this moment count " I said. Everyone nodded in agreement.

All the prospective graduates of Stanford University, will you please gather in the backstage for your briefing. The woman in charge of the mic said through the school announcement system. Her voice echoed all around the halls.

" Let's go! " Willow said.

We all headed to the backstage. But walking fast wasn't easy. We had to maintain our balance, plus we had to listen to Janet's non stop blabbering, urging us to be quick. Finally, after what felt like forever, we arrived backstage.

" Okay, last practice, and a one, a two, a one, two, three go! " Mr. Luke said.

We all started singing. We sounded great! Last practice, then it's showtime!

" Students! It's time! Get to the stage! " Mr. Luke instructed.

We all headed to the stage in one line. The hall was already filled with hundreds of parents, staring proudly at their children. Without me realizing, a tear dropped. I quickly wiped it away and continued heading to the stage.

For 10 minutes, we were on the stage singing our hearts out. Some of us cried, but this isn't the saddest part yet. After this, we all have to go to our parents and thank them for leading us to where we are today. I haven't thought about it yet, but I had no parents, well I did, but I wouldn't expect them to come to their betrayer child's graduation.
