Adventures @ Graduation

My little sister, Miriam, just graduated from Alta High on Wednesday! It was so weird to see her completing that important phase of her life. It was even stranger were the events that happened that day. . . .

First I woke to the sound of Amber, and my mom running around the house. I had no clue what was going on so I got out of bed to see. There was a big, ugly, brown bird in our house! It kept trying to fly through all the closed windows. My cat also happened to be inside. . . . She was very interested in that bird. Luckily, I grabbed her and put her outside before she could get it. I grabbed a bucket and my mom finally got it . . . then released it outside.

After we scrambled to get ready we piled into the suburban and headed to Orem. We were late so we were running across the parking lot when my mom said, "Camille! Your shoes don't match". I looked down and sure enough they did not match. I forgot to bring down some high heels from college, so I had just grabbed a pair from my mom's closet (my sisters feet are way bigger than mine). I should have checked to see if they matched. Well it was too late so I just had to wear them.

We walked into the auditorium and saw empty seats at the very top of the bleachers. We climbed up and then sat down. Then the bleachers started swaying! I was so scared that it would fall down. By the end of the program I was ready to throw up from all the rocking it did.

Miriam's graduation wasn't as boring as mine or Clint's, but still it had its boring moments. My parents were smart and brought things to do. Hehehe (both were playing on their iphone)

There were so many graduating students that it took at least an hour and a half to announce all of their names.

Well, since I didn't have anything to do during the speeches, I decided that I would take a picture of my mismatched shoes. BAD IDEA! I put my feet up on Clint's lap to take a picture. There was an old lady sitting in front of us but was leaning forward at the time. I decided the lighting was too weird to take a picture. As I was swinging my legs around so I could put them down. . . the old lady leaned back! I ended up kicking her in the head! How embarrassing! I wanted to die.
