Kinda funny that actual schools around Japan used an otaku song for Graduation >.>

So what song did you guys have for graduation?
Forgot the song I had for my grade 6 one, but....yeah it was gay...
Haven't graduated high school yet, but will in 8 months time! Can't wait!

We just had that "normal american" graduation song...the one that I think was meant to be for funerals. I really wanted us to have the Final Fantasy Fanfare as our graduation song, but life isn't perfect. :(

And I like Japan's default graduation songs a lot, too. They're kind of sad sounding, which fits graduations perfectly.

When you graduate, something dies inside of you. D':
So look forward to that, Infinity. Everyone foolishly says "I can't wait to graduate!" until a few months after they do. And then they say "what horrible thing have I wished upon myself!?" lulz.

And it's funny, because Japan's graduation songs also sound like they'd fit in a Final Fantasy game. XD

We don't really "graduate" from school in the UK. We just "leave", haha.

Although for my university graduation ceremony, we had a brass band playing which was great in the big hall. The professors and other important people walked in to the Olympic Fanfare by John Williams. To be honest it was the first time I had heard the piece, but it's a really great piece of music.

And then when everything was finished, all the newly-graduated graduates happily marched off to... the Dambusters Theme Tune!

It was a nice surprise for the day :)

Silly kids, silly kids.
Youth is wasted on the young! You don't know what you have until you lose it!
I'm only twenty years old, but that doesn't mean I can't be a depressing old man! :heh:

I think the same way...I'm only 18.
I'm a young adult but I feel like I'm ancient! I feel like I've lived long enough to be able to say something like "Take it easy, enjoy what you have today because you'll lose it pretty soon"

Year 6 was 'friends forever' by Vitamin C (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FWitXo2sgJ0)
Year 10 was '5 years from now'... Mercury 5 I think. May not be its real name LOL. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EfKP7D3T-94)
Year 12 was 'Hallelujah' - I don't know who originally sang that one, but it's in Shrek ;) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y6Lz5gMU1Y8&)

I graduate later this year too. I think I'll miss alot of things too. As far as the actual ceremony goes I don't particularly care for the robes that they give us being that my school colors are brown and gold. When everyone stands together we'll look like a sea poo with pieces of corn in it!! XD lol
