HS Graduation Speech

[BaboonGuy]

I need to come up with a theme for the graduation speech I'll be doing along with another girl (2 diff speeches, connected themes). Some examples are like, Sacrifice and Achievement, Friends and Family. I'm leaning towards a speech thats more advice oriented because I dont' know if I could honestly say a lot of nice things about the school. Any ideas?

Whatever you do, don't end with: "And so make the most of your time." And please don't say the word, "Lover" during your speech. We've all heard that one before.

 

[Cooljt1]

all i gotta say is make it funny. if you start blabbering about crap achievements and schooling it gets boring real quick

 

[ApacheXMD]

don't be like the girl from my highschool and ripoff the whole carpe diem thing from Dead Poets Society

just say how in 10 years.. none of the crap you did in highschool will matter, so in reality.. this is all a big waste of everyone's time.

and bring plenty of beachballs, eggs, and tortillas to toss around

don't worry about it. unless you totally fvck up, no one is going to remember anything 10 minutes later.

I barely remember my h/s graduation. all I remember was that we had to wear tux's, not gowns. and a few minutes before walking into the place, I went to the bathroom; as I was buttoning up the pants, the button broke. I spent the rest of the time hoping that my pants wouldn't fall down as I was walking across the stage

fortunately, they didn't. at least I was wearing underwear, though

Keep it short, don't talk about politics or religion, refrain from bad cliches (sp?).

Give a Hulkster/Macho Man style MegaPowers speech - OOOOOOOOH YEAAAH.

Life is like a box of chocolate............

 

[Gravity]

Talk about your generation's desire to persevere in despite the cultural degradation that is a result of the sexual revolution and the parental rebellion of the 50's. Mention Feminism but be careful; if there's predominately females in your audience, they'll castrate you, if it's mostly men, you'll start a rally, neither of which is preferable for your speech.

Don't say much about your school but focus on the hopes and aspirations of the body you represent.

Cheers,

Tell them the world is caught in a cycle of continually escalating violence and they should go from there to thier nearest armed forces recruiting station.

 

[Sid59]

fill it with as many cliches as you can.

 

[GasX]

Tell them that they are all destined for immortailty and greatness and then set off a car bomb...

 

[biostud]

Only one thing in life is certain.......We're all going to die.

That should set the mood right.

Welcome the crowd and tell them to look at the graduating seniors. Say "This is the future, right here. We're fvcked." Calmly walk off stage.

Great idea. You should lecture the crowd on the "Prayers, Minerals, and Vitamins" that have gotten you, Hulk Hogan, to this point in your life. Then you should unleash your 21" pythons all over the principal.

With your principal cowering on-stage, tower over him/her and scream "Whatcha gonna do when Hulkamania runs wild all over you!?!"

Calmly walk off stage.

You could rip off Conan O'briens harvard commencement speech.

Or at the very least, get some ideas from it...

 

[DaveSimmons]

Speak about the dangers of dihydrogen monoxide -- trace amounts are in almost all of our foodstuffs!

 

[HomeBrewerDude]
