Best High School Memory

May 16th, 1998...10th grade.......there I was....running for President of the Student Body...I had to give a speech in front of 350 people.. my heart was in my throat. I couldn't barely breath. I was wearing a large striped T-shirt (white with blue stripes) that felt like a 40 lbs led-weight because of the pressure I was under.

I stood in front of those people trying so hard not to laugh and trying to read my speech with ease.

So the only thing I could do is speak in a presidental impressionation voice of Richard Nixon and Kennedy blended into one...turned out rather well....

especially after I was finished...I screamed at the top of my lungs ROCK THE VOTE!!!!!!!!!! which actually sounded more like

ROCK N ROLL!!!!!!!!!!

Then after I was seated...I folded my arms and put on my sunglasses  8) like so...

The entire crowd busted out laughing...a roar of 350 people was priceless...for a moment, I was able to kiss heaven on the lips...not a feeling in the world could break me from such a moment of peace among that many people....

later on, that speech was put in a frame and dubbed "The Rock N Roll Speech" by Bethel Regional High School...and went down in history...they still speak about it to this day..

What happened to the voting you may wonder? I lost by 3 votes...it was alright however, because I was moving to Texas that summer...and I honestly wanted to make a farewell speech to all my friends, so I figured it was the best and only chance to deliver it the way I wanted it :)
 
im assuming they were laughing AT you. But hey when people assume....it makes an butt out of U and ME

get it? Assume, butt out of u and me?  :lol...i no it's lame  ::)
 
they still speak about it to this day..

:lol I wouldn't count on it man. Every grade 12 student body thinks their the shizzat and once they leave the school no one remembers them, no matter how cool you thought you were, lol.
 
Skipping school. I never failed a class either. I would always skip every now and then up until April and then I would go to every class every single day until the end of the year and I aced the exams. My friends and I always did fun stuff.

Um, actually they do man, I wouldn't lie about that. I still keep in touch with them after 8 years almost...:)
 
I still have a year and a half to answer this question, be patient. But so far I'm leading more towards my haunted house memories with my friends.
 
hmm, let's see, I work in a haunted house during October, and I get to work with my friends and we chase kids with chainsaws, and make big scary men fall through doors, if you want to know anymore about that than just ask me.
