Let me know how was your graduation?

«Let me know” is a rubric for the stories of our readers. Every week we launch a survey and look forward to your comments. The most interesting of them end up in articles and collections.

Recently, proms were held all over Russia. So today, to 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 it is the unexpected incidents that make the event memorable. For example, one of my acquaintances was proposed right from the stage of the assembly hall, where certificates 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 cribs

remaining after the exam. They collected them in a bag, so that later 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 put his certificate in the same case. And now the "accordions" and "tubes" flew into the fire, and after them its blue crust flopped. He tried to pull it out quickly, but miscalculated, and the flames spread to his jacket. Terrified, he pulled it off and threw it into the same fire. As a result, the guy lost both his jacket and his certificate. I think for him this story has become one of the most memorable.

How was your graduation? Did such incidents happen? What was the most touching moment? Have you realized that "adulthood" has begun?
