Gimme: I almost went to Brooks 20 some odd years ago… They used to have a good rep. Don’t know about now tho… the Art Institute is prob just a little more than Brooks… I’d go with AI today… Rev ![](http://www.aulman.com/rev.gif) ---

Good Luck… not only at your graduation but whereever the wind might take you after that… You always got friends here and a friend in me… Something I always do when I’m speaking in front of a large crowd is sit and think about all the good things you went through with your classmates… Course there are a few jerks… But hey… You gotta tell yourself… I’m up here and you aren’t so KISS MY \*\*\*! 🙂 You’ve got a good back behind you and that should be enough to clear your way to the top… Take it eays and take care. ---

Thanks Marlin, I’ve never been this nervous before and this will also be my first time speaking in from of a crowd this large so yeah I got butterflies, moths, birds and bats flying around in my stomach right now. You guys are really helping out a lot though, thanks for the wise words. =) ---

Well, its 11:45 pm here in central time zone, and no EG. Sorry you passed out :). I just hope you didn’t throw up on the principal. But congrats on being valedictorian, I know that’s not an easy thing to do. I was almost valedictorian, but then like 200 people from my 201 person class all beat me, so I didn’t actually get it. CONGRATS NWC :trout: ---

Hope you enjoy yourself EG. I graduated about three years ago now, but I remember that day well. All very serious up until we hit the bar afterwards. Good fun, go and knock yourself out. 🙂 And congratulations on graduating. 🙂 [Previous page](https://forum.kirupa.com/t/im-graduating/15394.md?page=1) [Next page](https://forum.kirupa.com/t/im-graduating/15394.md?page=3)
