Now at the end of our careers as students. Despite the failures and mistakes we will make

You know, I've never understood, supposed to make you less nervous. Honestly, I'm just uncomfortable right now. To ensure clear communication with this "social
media generation", hashtags and pop-culture references will be used.

Today I'm going to give you a speech Now, graduates, I don't know if you know me,
but I'm Chase.,We went to High School together. That was good times, The world we live in is plagued with dangers: Ebola, ISIS, Global Warming, facial acne. And despite all the odds we still managed
to graduate, It was only three years ago that we came to
the labyrinth known as Weber High. As young, timid sophomores we found ourselves
lost in its halls like they were the changing staircases of Hogwarts. We danced to lyrics we did not understand
in the song "Gangnam Style". We said "YOLO" and "cray-cray" as if we were supposed to. Thank goodness we have "yet" now. We anticipated our cataclysmic doom at the end of 2012.

Back then, Weber High School had no windows. Oh wait, it still doesn't. I know, it was a cliché joke but
it was still necessary, #sorrynotsorry. Though nervous as sophomores, we started getting
a hang of things, and Junior year for many of us brought experience, and for many more
of us, it meant Stage 1 Senioritis. And now, here we are: done with High School!,As Charles Dickens put it, "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.",But now we are through with the stressful
days of AP and ACT testing.

We have raised tens of thousands of dollars for Quarters & Cans and inhaled hundreds of pounds of baby powder during football. We have survived "WHS Screenshots". And last but not least, we have realized that
we are the most attractive class ever.,As our Student Body President, Mikah Meyer
has observed, quote, "One might say we've aged well.",And now as seniors listening to me deliver
this brilliant graduation speech, we are through, afflicted and overwhelmed with Senioritis. Now at the end of our careers as students.

We have an opportunity: now is our time to take on the world, and to find and pursue our passions, to quote-unquote, "Leave a Legacy.",William Shakespeare, and also Channing Tatum, once said, "Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.",In life, we can't always count on being born
great or having greatness thrust upon us, but always, always remember that the opportunity to achieve greatness is within our grasp. Keep in mind that many of our social and political leaders and heroes started their lives as an average person; as just one of you and me.

Despite the failures and mistakes, we will make, and although I may be "average", we find that the average can achieve greatness, whether recognized by the world or just a few.,Greatness comes from our friends reaching
out to us, those who go out of their way to be thoughtful, the "unsung heroes". If there's anything you take from today, remember that to "leave a legacy" and to "achieve greatness" is not to get money and recognition, it's to leave those with whom you cross paths with a little more happiness and hope
. Our time here together as a senior class will not be remembered by grades, popularity, likes, or favorites, but by our relationships.,The kind of person you were. These are legacies, the kind we must leave. Class of 2015, it's been a #splendid 3 years
with you, and from the bottom of my heart I wish you all the very, very, very best.,Thank you.
