A few days ago I wrote a thread about our preparation for my son’s graduation day, which was held last March 30.  We were supposed to be at the NDGM Gym at 4:30PM.  Yes, we arrived on time, but unfortunately, the ceremony did not begin till around 6PM.   We could not wait on our assigned seats, as our son informed us that we were required to wait outside the gym while waiting for the graduation rites to start.

The event was to commence with a procession, where each student had to walk together with his/her parents in the middle aisle, on a red carpet, upon entering the gym.  Then we were to proceed to our assigned seats.  It was going to be a nice procession.  There were 2 big projector screens up front where everyone could view each and every student walking in the middle aisle with his/her parents.  But since the weather was really hot and humid that day, by the time the procession began, we were already sticky and sweaty.  You can just imagine how we looked on those two big screens!  I was so relieved to see that the gym had those real big fans that sprinkled water as they swung from left to right.  That made the air inside the gym a bit cooler than the air outside.   

Anyway, the entire graduation ceremony ended a little after 8PM.  We took some pictures during and after the event, after which, we proceeded home to have our special dinner with the rest of our family members waiting for us.

Here are some of Angelo’s photos, including the pictures that we took on his Graduation day, that I collected to share with all of you…
