High School Memory Research Paper

My most memorable memory included eggs, confetti, and confusion. This day had many odd occurrences, from window paint, eggs, flour, camouflage, and a roller coaster of emotions. The best memory ever to me was the last day of my senior year of high school. That day started off as any normal last day of high school. There were camera flashes, k.i.t (keep.in.touch) in yearbooks, smiles, yearbooks flying around the cafeteria, and saying goodbye to teachers. As the day progressed, it was good being able to hang out with my whole class before walking the stage.
The school wanted those of us who had to take finals to review for them. I did not want to review. I just wanted to run around campus hiding from the administration. It was fun hiding at
the high school campus. The campus was about the size of three or four football fields. A group of friends and I split up. After we hid, administration called all the seniors to the auditorium to get our caps and gowns. They let us hang out in the auditorium while everyone waited.
After lunch, we found out that they had some activities planned for us. The activities were being held in the stadium. My friend and I had the brightest idea to play a prank on the junior class. As they released us to the stadium, we ran because, wanted to get the right spot. My friend, Renia, had brought flour. She, being so smart, showed everyone, and one of my friends, Jose, tore the bag open went all over her. The prank turned on her; she was upset and embarrassed. It was very funny, and then she picked up some flour that was on the ground, and threw it on everyone around her and started a big flour fight. I was kind of afraid of being in the mix of the chaos. No one really cared what we were doing; that’s what made it even more fun. During our flour fight it was also hot and every one was sweating. After being in the stadium all day, my friend, Ricardo, told me he had some eggs filled with confetti for the slide show to throw them at each other.
The eggs with confetti are a Mexican tradition that they do at birthday parties and graduation parties. Ricardo gave me two dozen eggs to have. We all were excited and thrilled that we had something to have fun with at the end of the slide show. The administration put us all in the gym. Once we sat they had the passing the ceremony of school key down to the junior class, they let us sit on the gym floor and watch our slideshow. The lights in the gym were turned off. The slide show went on; all of a sudden there were eggs flying toward us. I thought that it was time to start throwing the eggs with confetti. I got hit, but this egg had yolk; none of the eggs we had were with yolk in them. Then a roll of toilet paper was flying midair. The administration was going crazy trying to stop the eggs and toilet paper flying everywhere. When I turned and saw that the junior class was the ones who were throwing eggs and toilet paper, I was upset that they were trying to be funny with our class. Once the administration got everything under control told us ‘’we have footage of the whole fiasco we going to review it. There will be big consequences for the big fiasco.’’ I was upset also they wanted to blame my friend, Ricardo, saying that he started it all and that he was not going to be able to walk during graduation. It was upsetting. After everything was cleared he was able to walk with the
class.
Overall, just being with my friends in the stadium and watching my friend, Renia, have flour all over herself was the best childhood memory. The Adventurous things we did to get through the day couldn’t have been any better than hiding, running around and the eggs with confetti. It was so much fun just watching everyone having a good time with each other for the last time. I loved my last day of my senior year; my friends made it the best. My friend, Ricardo, was able to walk with our whole class. This day is a day that I will never forget, making this the best childhood memory.
