The big day is finally here as Curtis senior graduates from high school.

Wassssup everybody!

I feel like I haven’t written in awhile! I hope everyone has been good.

Welp, the end of senior year has come! Let's recap the last few couple of weeks …

Prom was probably the most hectic time of this whole school year! People had to figure out who they were asking and what the groups were going to be. Since I have a girlfriend, I was already secured a date, J! I still asked her to make it romantic: When she came home, I spelled out “PROM” is candles with flowers  next to them. We went to prom in a group of 26 people. We took pictures by the water and went to dinner at Farellis. We had a nice party bus taking us around everywhere. It was overall a good night!

Next, graduation came! Graduation week flew by! All of my finals were super easy and I'm pretty sure they went really well. When Friday came, I was not excited to sit through graduation but it went well. I ended up being really happy when I walked across the stage. Afterward, I went to the graduation party that was sponsored by the school. First, we went to the Family Fun Center in Mountlake Terrace. We played games, putt putt, bumper cars and bungee jump until about 2 in the morning.

After the Fun Center, we went to Hard Rock Cafe in Seattle. This place was tight! They had a DJ, hypnotist and even a magician. This magician was tricky and I was following him around trying to figure out his tricks. We finally got home around 6 in the morning and everyone was tired.

I got three hours of sleep because I woke up and went to get a tattoo. I’ve wanted a tattoo for awhile now. It says “Family is my motivation” on my right inner bicep. It didn’t really hurt that much.

 That’s all for now!
