Dear Graduating Vampires, Humans and I’m sure some of the Werewolves,
We break for the weekend and you all decide to go and graduate on us. I’m a little disappointed I didn’t receive an invitation to commencement but I’ll just assume mine is lost in the mail and head over to Hallmark asap to get you all a bunch of shiz that says “Class of 2009″ that you will eventually find 5 years later when you’re cleaning out our old bedroom at your parents house. Return it NOW for cash. Trust me.
Seeing the caps and gowns and fake diplomas got me thinking about when I graduated and how I loved those cheesy quotes that people used in their commencement speeches, on graduation announcements, and as the class motto so I got to thinking about which quote you guys would choose for your graduation. And here’s what I came up with…
Mike Newton
What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us (burritos). ~Ralph Waldo Emerson
Bella Swan
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did…. (so TURN me already, Edward!! GEEZ!!) ~Attributed to Mark Twain, unconfirmed
Angela Weber
Wherever you go, no matter what the weather, always bring your own sunshine. (Cause it always freaking rains in freaking Forks, Washington) ~Anthony J. D’Angelo, The College Blue Book
Eric Yorkie
Excellence is not a skill. It is an attitude (So CHILLAX!). ~Ralph Marston
Edward Cullen
The important thing is not to stop questioning (But I hope you enjoy disappointment). ~Albert Einstein
Alice Cullen
If you think education is expensive, try ignorance! Manolo Blahniks ~Andy McIntyre
(I know, I know they didn’t graduate the same year, but just go with it…)
Rosalie Hale
Education is the best provision for old age. (So it becoming an Vampire) ~Aristotle
Jasper Hale
There is a good reason they call these ceremonies ‘commencement exercises’. Graduation is not the end, it’s the beginning (trust me, I’ve done this like 50 times) – Orrin Hatch
Emmett Cullen
Do not follow where the path may lead. Go, instead, where there is no path and leave a trail (but hopefully no scent for any murderous nomadic vampires). ~Ralph Waldo Emerson
Happy Graduation!
Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world (so is blogging about Vampires),
