1 00:00:08,050 --> 00:00:17,050 Good evening faculty, teachers, students, friends. 2 00:00:17,050 --> 00:00:22,050 Isn't it funny how day by day, nothing seems to change? 3 00:00:22,050 --> 00:00:26,050 But when you look back, everything is different. 4 00:00:26,050 --> 00:00:33,049 It feels almost impossible for me to stand here in front of all of you and say, 5 00:00:33,049 --> 00:00:39,770 say, we are done, but it is true. All of us made it through the roughest years of 6 00:00:39,770 --> 00:00:46,729 school. Honestly, there's nothing as important as believing in yourself and 7 00:00:46,729 --> 00:00:53,450 having the courage to say, you can do it. Because nothing comes easy in life, but 8 00:00:53,450 --> 00:01:00,649 what would life be like without challenges? People need to start dreaming big and 9 00:01:00,649 --> 00:01:07,010 stop blaming themselves for every single mistake they make. Because success isn't 10 00:01:07,010 --> 00:01:14,129 found, you have to go and get it. We're all here now, safe and sound, wearing our 11 00:01:14,129 --> 00:01:21,049 most beautiful dresses on our day. This might sound crazy, but now that we are 12 00:01:21,049 --> 00:01:27,709 done, it actually feels hard for me to leave school, to leave all these amazing 13 00:01:27,709 --> 00:01:32,709 experiences and people who I can now call family behind me. 14 00:01:34,170 --> 00:01:37,870 It is not just hard to leave our friends behind, 15 00:01:37,870 --> 00:01:42,549 but also our teachers, who have not just only taught us math 16 00:01:42,549 --> 00:01:46,390 or science, but have also helped us grow up 17 00:01:46,390 --> 00:01:48,909 and become who we are today. 18 00:01:50,189 --> 00:01:52,390 We always thought some of our teachers 19 00:01:52,390 --> 00:01:55,890 worked really hard on us, but then I remembered 20 00:01:55,890 --> 00:01:57,709 the famous quote from Bill Gates. 21 00:01:57,709 --> 00:02:03,569 If you think your teacher is dumb, wait until you get a boss. 22 00:02:03,569 --> 00:02:09,669 It seems as if it were just yesterday when we couldn't sleep the night before our first 23 00:02:09,669 --> 00:02:16,389 day in high school, because we were too nervous to start, but then time flies, and without 24 00:02:16,389 --> 00:02:23,810 even thinking a moment about it, we became the oldest ones at school, entering this hell 25 00:02:23,810 --> 00:02:28,469 that everyone talked about called materato. 26 00:02:28,469 --> 00:02:33,509 Now, it's time that we all start a different adventure 27 00:02:33,509 --> 00:02:36,330 at university or at work, 28 00:02:36,330 --> 00:02:40,129 a place where we will do what we actually enjoy, 29 00:02:40,129 --> 00:02:42,870 but also a place that for sure 30 00:02:42,870 --> 00:02:45,569 won't be as special as this high school, 31 00:02:46,849 --> 00:02:50,349 a place where we won't go on trips to Chaka, 32 00:02:50,349 --> 00:02:52,669 Pembroke, Poland, 33 00:02:52,669 --> 00:02:55,789 and where our teachers won't cook for us, 34 00:02:55,789 --> 00:02:58,830 or a place where people will look at me 35 00:02:58,830 --> 00:03:03,210 as if I were going crazy when I talk about the 24 hours. 36 00:03:04,610 --> 00:03:08,490 Galileo is not just a place where people come to study, 37 00:03:08,490 --> 00:03:11,729 but it's also a place that teaches us values, 38 00:03:11,729 --> 00:03:16,729 such as trust, modesty, effort, teamwork, and affection. 39 00:03:17,789 --> 00:03:20,729 And what better way to end this speech 40 00:03:20,729 --> 00:03:24,469 to thanking everyone that has supported us 41 00:03:24,469 --> 00:03:28,610 during this journey, from our friends, 42 00:03:28,610 --> 00:03:32,590 boyfriends, girlfriends, to our family. 43 00:03:32,590 --> 00:03:37,250 Our parents, they're always there to cheer us on. 44 00:03:37,250 --> 00:03:42,250 Our grandmas, they're always interested in our studies, 45 00:03:42,250 --> 00:03:45,050 or even our brothers or sisters, 46 00:03:45,050 --> 00:03:48,449 who are always willing to bother us on our assembly. 47 00:03:48,449 --> 00:03:54,449 I wish you all the best in this journey to reach your dreams and your most ambitious goals. 48 00:03:54,449 --> 00:04:02,449 I hope you enjoy this day because I'm quite sure you will never leave something as special in your life again. 49 00:04:02,449 --> 00:04:08,449 It's time to start living, to spread your wings and fly.
