For many, graduating high school and leaving the place you call home can have a dramatic affect on you, it is a milestone in your life. For the others, graduating high school, going onto college, joining the army, entering the work force, etc., is the first step to the rest of our lives; we opened a new chapter. Some of us rarely look back to high school, you forget all about it. When you do get the chance to look back, you remember the little things that you can't help but laugh at.
