Memories Through Graduation and Things You Could do After Graduation

By Christy Li

We are here to celebrate the amazing 10 years of our outstanding Mary Word and to celebrate our striking year 12’s who are going to graduate from this school! Well, even if you are close to graduating, you can reflect on your past and memories of what you’ve been through with your friends and family, or looking back at the achievements you’ve made in the past. 

But what are some things you could do after graduation? After graduating, you can explore deeper in this world or enjoy your own time after graduation by resting at home and taking your own time.

(Things you should definitely do if you love travelling!)

After graduation, you can take your time hanging out with your own friends and family enjoying the peace after your hard work from school. This is the opportunity when you could fly to different places like Japan (in my opinion one of the best places to visit), where you can visit places you would definitely love to visit like visiting restaurants, cafes and many different types of places that serve food like traditional foods you might not have seen or tasted in Australia while buying some souvenirs  to remember every single travel you’ve been on. Learning the language of the country you chose would also be a great thing to do so you can communicate the basics to other people if you're stuck or need help.

(For people who love art)

If you’re that kind of person who enjoys art and unleashing your creativity, you can try to make something of your own using time that you can never have with just school holidays and make something more complex and intricate. Some examples are origami, and drawing or clay making, which are some creative crafts many people enjoy doing. If  you're talented or not, in the end you’ll always be able to grow to success if you spend some hard work on those subjects even if you just enjoy it.

(MOST IMPORTANT THING YOU SHOULD DEFINITELY DO AFTER GRADUATING!!)

You may think it’s like writing stories, revising on your own maths or anything related to work? After graduation, it’s important to reflect on your positive memories of you and your friends while looking back at your achievements, awards, any extracurricular or groups you’ve been involved in, as this would definitely brighten up a lot or even at least a bit of your day. Your achievements and contribution to school is amazing and you should be proud of yourself for the achievements you’ve made. Looking back at what you achieved, you should definitely praise yourself for this amazing achievement. Memories of you and your friends would also bring a smile on your face no matter if you’re sad or happy, your friends will always be by your side and they would also remember you, wherever you go or travel!🌸

What I’d be doing if I graduated (it’s gonna take forever 😂)

I would definitely travel to Japan while buying/making Kimetsu No Yaiba (Demon Slayer) or Genshin Impact cosplays while eating as much Japanese food as I can, but I should also be careful of the money left 🌸! Hobbies like origami as I would try to create my own origami because I’ve learnt how to do complex origami and I’m still learning how to fold new things! Drawing is something I also enjoy a lot and would continue to draw anime since it’s a calming activity to do when I’m bored. Playing games as much as I can is definitely something I’d love to do while I love learning new math equations or even problem solving questions (even if I’m bad at it, it’s still an enjoyable subject to do!). Last of all, reading books as much as I can would also be something I’d enjoy - something that can ease out my stress and anxiety.
