Graduation Day (Or the day I finally stood up for myself against my parents)

So this weekend was my graduation weekend and my family was all totally chuffed until well...the girl I have a crush on tackled me to the floor and said "Well you are going to like our little camping trip, because I know I will," then we wrestled a bit. My parents were not pleased with that, because now my aunts think there is a thing going on between me and my friend (I WISH THERE WAS!!!) Then after that happened my parents went to my friend and said, "I don't think she can go camping with you any more." Then as we were taking pictures together my crush's mother said, "Oh come on just a hug?" Which just made my parents more angry. I just thought it was funny, when my crush's mother proceeded to say, "Oh come on take the stick out of your asses, you should be proud of your daughter for who she is, not who you want her to be. Because believe me, your daughter is keeping a buttload of secrets just to keep you guys happy." Man not only do I love my crush, but I love her parents. My parents took offense at that and tried to drag me away from my friends. But I pulled back and said, "No mom and dad, I want to stay here. Don't you think that maybe there is a little truth to what they say. Anyways it is my graduation, and I worked hard and you should be proud of me no matter what happens. Plus today is not only about family, it is about friends." Well my mom and dad looked like they were ready to kill me, when my school's principal came in and said, "Catherine is right, let her stay with her friends. And I know you two are proud of her because she is after all the first in her generation to go to a University. But we are also proud of her too. It is nice to hear that she is getting to spread her wings a little bit, going camping with her best friend. I'd say it is much safer then any of the other trips, their peers are going to." then she ran off to settle a drama that was happening near by where a girl invited her birthparents and her adopted parents and her adopted parents were not please to see the birth parents. So then my parents turned to my crush's parents and said that I could still go on the camping trip and that they were just being over protective.

Then we went for dinner, after that we went home and my friends picked me up to go to the senior bonfire, were we decided instead of burning our skirts or textbooks it would be much more funnier to burn bras, so as to confuse the boys school. Yeah the boys just walked onto the beach after we started and we jokingly started to chase them with sticks with burning bras on them. They ended up retaliating by flinging blown up condoms in our direction, which was funny. A bunch of our classmates got smashed and me and my friends got bored so we went into the car and decided to get some food. We ate at Mel's Drive in. Then since it was my friend's birthday we decided to let her pick what she wanted to do. Which was go to a strip club...oh dear god have mercy. That was awkward and hilarious at the same time. SO all in all I had fun on my graduation.
