Proms have recently been held all over Russia. So today, under the song "When we leave the schoolyard", we invite you to share stories about Day X.
The presentation of certificates and the solemn wish of a "good journey" is always very exciting. But unexpected incidents make the event especially memorable. For example, one of my friends was offered an offer right from the stage of the assembly hall, where diplomas and medals were presented. The other was taken away in an ambulance due to alcohol poisoning. But the story that happened at my sister's school, I think, is "the best."
Two boys decided to arrange a ritual burning in the park of cheat sheets left after the Unified State Exam. They put them in a bag, so that they could effectively open it over the fire and shake the papers into the fire. However, it was at dawn — one of the future applicants forgot that he had put his certificate in the same case. And so the "accordion" and "tubes" flew into the fire, followed by its blue crust. He tried to pull it out quickly, but did not calculate, and the flame spread to his jacket. Terrified, he pulled it off and threw it into the same bonfire. As a result, the guy lost both his jacket and his certificate. I think this story has become one of the most memorable for him.
And how was your graduation? Have there been any similar excesses? What was the most touching moment? Have you realized that "adult life" has begun?
