Grade Eight Graduation Angst

I wrote the following journal entry after my grade eight graduation rehearsal. At the time I was coming to terms with the fact that I had won no awards and was perceived as mediocre. Tear!

This is a photo of me that was taken at my graduation ceremony:

Note the gray, metal chairs I spoke of in my journal entry. Also note my butch-tastic hair cut and farmer's tan. And yes, my best friend of the time had made her own dress. How did you guess?!
