It is hard to believe that it has been 7 years since I saw Ryan Byrnes at the tuck shop on the first day of grade one,when he asked, with a dollar in his hand and two lovely girls by his side, "you got a piece of chocolate cake for these two girls?"

Im a bit late on the whole commenting thing, but i guess its better late than never. Im writing this because its been just over three years since we all graduated and it feels like only yesterday we were outside writing our spelling words in chalk. Getting older is so hard, watching the people you remember sitting in the sand box with and playing dress up with grow up is realy difficult. I miss everything about primary school. The rarity of an argument, the compassion of the teachers, the friends i made.. None of us are the same anymore, but we will always remember our years together at Magnetic Island State School. Growing up on the island is like having a MASSIVE extended family. Everyone knows everyone, there are auntys we don't like and cousins we love but no matter how we feel about them we are all united by the beauty and magic of Magnetic Island. Graduation was very hard, we all had a cry. Mostly i think because it ment that we really were leaving all that we knew behind. I guess thats life though, moving on. I want to thank all the teachers i had from Magnetic Island SS for building me into the person i am. Although some people might not think very much of me, they made me see that i AM a good person and i AM worth orther peoples time. I want to thank all the friends i had in primary school because even though we may not see eachother anymore, you were there in the start. Kiara.
