A Grandiose Evening (Part 2)

We meet again, my dear friend. I presume that you had read the first part of what I am going to continue to type down, right? If your answer is no, then go back and find the entry with the title: "A Grandiose Evening (Part 1)". If you can't seem to find it their there are only two reasons why: its either you are blind or you just lack skills in looking for it. Anyway, if you had read the first entry, then I'll continue from where we left off. Umm, where did we just left off? Oh yes, my idiotic self claiming the legacy of Bibliophilia, I suppose? Okay, brace yourself for we are to dive into my recollections once again.

Okay, to continue what I was talking about, I was there, standing up with a blank expression on my face, it was as if my inner self was left in my house. I was petrified on the ground with faces staring at me, waiting for me to move. It was after some microseconds when I awoke in my senses and I terrifyingly received the enclosed letter that was handed down to me by the Senior. After all the legacies were given, we were given a salutation and frankly, I felt that I was special and I have a special attribute in my self. We went back to our seats and I was congratulated by my friends at our table and the next activity presumed. It was the lighting of the significant candle at the center of our table. After such a glorious event, the giving of tributes followed. This activity is characterized by giving the graduating Seniors a thing that they could treasure for as long as they like, in the Juniors' case, potpourri. After a solemn event, we sang our song for the Seniors, which they enjoyed a lot. After the last activities were finished, including the promenade dance, one of our teacher announced that it was time for the disco and we all cheered, hearing the good news.

The disco started with a rather slow song, intended for all the lovers inside the ballroom. It was really silent, except for a few whispers from various persons who could not relate to the lovers. The following tracks were enjoyable and full of life so all the people inside the room danced their way to the middle of the room and spent their time shaking their hips and twisting their bodies as if they were twisted Bristle cone Pines. After several songs were played, some went back to their seats, exhausted and hungry. Some went back to the buffet table to grab some food. It was really fun due to the interaction between the Juniors and Seniors that night. Both the Junior and Seniors boys were having a showdown, where some crawled and tumbled. After such a exhausting activity, the event ended and all of us went home, enjoyed and satisfied, especially the Juniors because for twice in their lives they had and they will experience the same feeling again, the feeling of friendship and bonding between the two year levels but before I could be found out lamenting and whimpering because of the said event, I would end this and once again, thank you for reading this recollection. Monsieur Aronnax.
