01:40:08
moments that seem insignificant but somehow stick with you for me there was that one time I lost my parents at Disney World when I found my dad I wanted to mess around with him and I slapped him full force in the back the problem is it wasn't even my dad just this random guy so I was absolutely mortified as a kid but now it's one of those stories that I can look back on and I can laugh about are there any memories like that for you guys absolutely like when I decided to push my boundaries by skydiving being

01:40:35
crammed in the back of a plane as it ascended to 14,000 ft was by no means comfortable the moment they opened the door a gust of cold air hit me and I could see the ground far below but free falling through the sky with the wind rushing past and then the sudden calm once the parachute opened was one of the most thrilling moments of my life I mean I haven't jumped out of a plane but I've had my fair share of stepping out of my comfort zone in more subtle ways Jaden remember the prank that we

01:41:01
pulled on you when we snuck into your house to hide a speaker in a fruit basket and play music at full blast now that doesn't seem small compared to sky diving but it was a step outside the norm for me it taught me the lighter side of pushing boundaries how taking small risks can strengthen friendships and create lasting memories each of these stories while vastly different highlights a common idea that growth often comes from unexpected and sometimes uncomfortable experiences these moments whether they're as

01:41:28
embarrassing as slapping a stranger dramatic as skydiving or as simple as a prank have shaped Us in ways that we could never have imagined in this next era we're faced with a world of possibilities we will undoubtedly be pushed beyond what we find comfortable but if our past experiences have taught us anything it's that stepping into the unknown isn't something to fear it's something to embrace so class of 2024 let's not not shy away from those moments instead let's dive into them head first these

01:41:58
experiences whether big or small are what will Define us and help us grow embrace the challenges take risks and remember that every moment from our past has been a step toward who we are today peace out [Applause] pen mathematics a subject that evokes strong feelings you either love it or hate it picture this gathered around The Family Table my older brother lifted his hand and asked me a kindergarten what's 1 + one oh it was at that moment my parents realized I was a mathematical genius jokes aside I never understood

01:42:43
why my parents were laughing so hard at my answer to me it wasn't a joke it was a genuine attempt to solve the problem at hand needless to say Matt didn't come easy to me like other kids yet with grit and perseverance I was able to overcome my challenges and start to excel in all my math classes so here is my takeaway for the class of 20 24 when met with the challenge overcome it through determination and hard work nothing in life comes e easy even though we wish it would sometimes we need to make the most

01:43:13
out of what life gives us and if there's one thing I learned in high school it's that 1 plus one is two [Applause] all right so some people think 1pl one is easy but for me it's always been kind of hard but that's okay because over the last four years we've chosen to go to school not because it is easy but because it is hard just like eating a hot pepper we all started out as seeds full of potential well maybe except for this guy but nonetheless time kept on edging us forward Middle School flew by

01:43:54
Elementary School flew by new fortnite season came and went uh Co then hit us and then suddenly all our virtual cameras started stopped working and then our DC CHP got canceled with no refund by the way that's crazy yeah for you buddy and then P high school we walked through into you and we realized that you pen are just you are just like a hot pepper spicy and exciting and me mble at first High School didn't seem that bad it was like nothing changed but like a hot pepper all the pressure started gushing

01:44:30
in at once pressures of clubs Athletics extracurriculars and knowing that we're better than St Joe however this pepper didn't just bring pain it brought flavor and depth much like the memories we've made class of 2024 we've survived the hot Carolina Reaper that was pan High School in large in in large regards thanks to the tremendous work of our janitor bus driver uh bard of faculties and most importantly our teachers but as we move on to the next chapter of Our Lives we must understand that new

01:45:11
challenges await us and let's remember what doesn't kills us makes us stronger guys it's time to move on to the next challenge in our lives [Applause] what a speech to follow well one night my mom noticed a chain of Lights speeding across the sky as we drove home from a late Orchestra rehearsal and as these lights above us grew closer and brighter we pulled to the side of the road trying to get a glimpse of these UFOs above and while no aliens had visited Misha walk that night I'd learned one lesson

01:45:59
these past 12 years have taught me that above all else not everything I experience is genuine no matter how certain I feel because as our world grows more AI generated each day we're increasingly forced to question the authenticity of the content around us that being said AI misuse is hurting our students in our schools and while these tools may be used for good it is on us to make that choice so I urge you guys to recall that not everything you experience is genuine and not everything is always as it seems thank

01:46:39
[Applause] you look around you I'm sure you remember when we were in elementary school young small and eager with the world so alien to us now here we are in our caps and gowns ready to graduate and move on to the next chapter of Our Lives while it may be hard to believe those same kids we started kindergarten with along with some additions throughout the years are the people we are graduating with today through every class Late Night Celebration and Milestone we have been there for each other always ready

01:47:14
to show our support this Collective Spirit of friendship in the class of 2024 is what defines us and makes our class so special while tonight is about celebrating our successes and achievements and most importantly graduating we must not neglect to acknowledge the people that got us here today I know any one of you could get up here and talk about your best friend who has been there for you no matter what the friend that teared you on during times of prosperity or lifted you up when you needed it most

01:47:46
these people have been the ones to teach us the value in trust acceptance and support the friendships we we have made here at Penn High School are truly the foundation of who we are as people today and have set us up for success in the future as we all move on in life I hope you never forget the friendships you've created here and continue to create new friendships wherever the world may take you we will always be connected to one another through the experiences and memories we have made and so if you ever

01:48:18
find yourself feeling scared lost or alone just remember you will always have this community of people who believe in you and wish the best for you after all real graduation friends we made along the way throughout our lives we've received plenty of advice from F friends family and the people around us one piece of advice that really stuck with me was from my mom her telling me to always keep showing up no matter what it looks like she would especially tell me this during freshman year when showing up looked a

01:48:57
lot different than what we were used to for me what made Co times easier was Finding ways to entertain myself with friends like one time when a few parents in my neighborhood who decided they needed to get us out of the house for a change wanted to make a dayong scavenger hunt for us it was definitely a funny experience that kept us showing up during a not so fun year I know next year most of our Lives will look a lot different than what we hope or even expect but it's important that we keep

01:49:20
showing up and be present in the moment [Applause] sitting down to write this speech I knew exactly what to do but in a much more real sense I had absolutely no idea what to do so instead I decided to let the immortal advice of my favorite actor speak for me in this life you don't have to prove nothing to nobody except yourself no no body is going to hit as hard as life but it ain't how hard you can hit it's how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward however bad life may seem there

01:50:02
is always something you can do and succeed at so when a defining moment comes along you can do one of two things Define the moment or let the moment Define you do or do not there is no try you'll have bad times but it'll always wake you up to the good stuff you weren't paying attention to after all tomorrow is another day so just keep swimming carp Dam Seize the Day make your lives extraordinary and in case I don't see you good afternoon good evening and good [Applause] night hi I'm Conor and I'm Owen we know

01:50:51
everyone here expects something serious like Henry said so we're going to talk about something serious a fat Panda Po who shows us that anyone could be the Dragon Warrior is only one of many characters from Kung Fu Panda who can teach us valuable lessons mantis a small Kung Fu Master shows us that size doesn't matter it's what's on the inside that counts or Mr ping po restaurant owning father who teaches us that even the best noodle can't please everybody but graduates as we are

01:51:26
launched into an unknown world just as po was we urge you to keep in mind a lesson from Master ugue he tells us that yesterday is history tomorrow is a mystery but today is a gift that is why it's called the present so graduates remember not to think too long and hard about what's to come instead appreciate where you are now after all why end high school with the bang when we can end it with a [Applause] scoo from the moment you get into high school you're always asked by adults what do you plan to study where are you

01:52:19
going to college and when are you going to get a girlfriend I mean seriously people these are real issues the future of mish shaaka relies on life's always prompted with issues you're forced to work around whether it be an upcoming calc test or even if you want nachos or calzones for lunch there's always something to be scared about for the rest of your life but it's okay to be scared taking that fear and embracing it is is our biggest strength allowing for growth we might not always

01:52:48
make the right choice but each one provides a lesson and think about it like this so many seniors throughout the past 100 years were in the same exact place as us right now the only difference is they actually got a DC trip so I think we'll be fine thank [Applause] you class of 2024 today we have reached the end of a journey each of you have experienced difficult decisions struggles and triumphs highs and lows that have guided and shaped your journey but above all else we made it through together yet among this sense of unity

01:53:34
it is important to recognize that no two paths were the same in fact no two people in this crowd are the same the same applies to us to as well Jaden and I have been good friends for a while so we like to believe that we know each other pretty well for example Jaden here was captain of the tennis team Rising throughout the ranks all through high High School a great accomplishment for sure it's just too bad that tennis is probably one of the least relevant sports teams at pen I I don't know what Felix is talking

01:54:04
about but uh Felix here loves math so Felix was instrumental to the pen math Super Bowl team getting a state championship this year can we get Applause for that honestly that's more Applause than I'd give but good job well at least we're able to win something this year right all right I I think that's enough um despite these differences and trust me there's plenty of them the fact is that we all made it here you and us so class of 2024 we all have our own differences but it's ultimately those differences

01:54:40
that make us unique to previous years our different backgrounds interests activities friendships and personalities created us and we are glad to have been a part of it with all of you so yes our differences should ultimately be celebrated and not judge the pond no matter how much I might judge Felix remember that as we take a look into our future postgraduation years as we all are gathered here today finally graduating high school after 12 long years I'm sure we can all think of that one piece of advice that we've

01:55:20
heard millions of times from different family members teachers and friends but no matter how many times we hear it we tend to not really hear it we roll our eyes like it's a bad joke but regardless of how overused or pointless a cliche may seem try to remember that it's a cliche for a reason so as we graduate high school faced with a blank canvas of our futures remember to continue to find a cloud Silver Lining or be the early bird that gets the worm as we begin our next chapter remember oh we must all take comfort in

01:55:55
the fact that we've heard advice many times before because often that advice will help you to go with a flow or look before you leave and remember if at first you don't succeed try and try again fellow 2024 graduates yay we've made it and the sky the limit today is graduation and that should be celebrated but what about tomorrow how do we find purpose in our days our time is too precious to let the days drift by Jimmy volano captures this in his 1993 SB speech which I encourage you to watch

01:56:36
sometime saying there are three things we should do every day laugh think and have our emotions move to tears as we move on we can't continue to trip on what's behind us we have to have purpose in our actions and be intentional with what we say yes to this is our opportunity to spread the light and treat others how we want to be treated our chance to create the life we want and follow our wildest dreams I'm so excited to see what we all do in the days ahead Briana whis in her book 101

01:57:06
essays that will change the way you think says you're always imagining what you want to do yet never really doing it friends this is our chance to do the things we've always imagined thank you [Applause] I used to imagine that when I grew up I would become invincible despite my childhood nickname being boo boo an endearment that described my propensity for walking into walls biking into trees and somehow hurting myself at every opportunity even then I would get up every time cry a little and rub some

01:57:49
dirt in it as my father would say as we've grown up life has thrown unfamiliar obstacles at us and it will continue to do so luckily I've realized that the uncertainty we feel at our age is a welcome and beautiful part of our Lives because with every twist and turn in life we get a chance to learn something new about the world around us or ourselves now is the time to not only embrace the end of a wonderful chapter in our life but to welcome a new and exciting one that lies ahead and I don't

01:58:21
know about you but it seems like everyone has been piling on their advice lately so I won't bore you with the details but it basically all boils down to one thing this is only the beginning whether it's College trade school or straight into the workforce there is so much more to accomplish than graduating high school now don't get me wrong this is a huge accomplishment that's worth celebrating but don't stop now we have all spent the last four years working hard for this moment and there's so much

01:58:46
more yet to come so to all our fellow classmates we want to take a moment to congratulate you on completing this 4-year journey I can't guarantee it gets easier but as Mia said life has so much to offer each and every one of you to all the teachers and parents you did it you survived raising the class of 2024 thank you for the dedication and love you have poured into US despite our shortcomings so before we leave let's just all take one deep breath knowing we didn't peek in high school because today is the first day of

01:59:23
the rest of our lives thank [Applause] you all right thank you valer torians I would like to thank pen teacher Mrs Bonnie Manningham for working with our valoran and crafting their speech tonight please join me in congratulating them one more time and thanking them for their many contributions to pen High School it is now my privilege to present to the class of 2024 one of our biggest supporters he is the 2012 Indiana superintendent of the year and the 2013 Indiana educator of the Year BM Dr Jerry
