Disney Grad Nite A Time To Remember

My Disney grad nite was actually the last time I went to Disneyland. The last time I went to the original Disneyland that is. I have been to the one in Orlando twice since then and that was because I was in Orlando on business and our company gave us tickets to get into the park both times. I suppose I never went back to Disneyland here in Orange County because I simply did not want to remember that night.

Do not hear me wrong. Disney land is a great place to celebrate high school graduation. You could tell from my grad night. There were about a thousand other high schools there that night who thought the same thing. The park was as crowded as Times Square at midnight on New Years Eve.

I rode on one ride that night, the snow white ride in the kids zone. It was the only ride without a thousand people waiting in line.

I also had planned my evening at the park with what seemed like a good idea at the time but later proved to be not so good a plan. I had started dating this one girl from my class who I had not met in all my four years at high school and yet we went to the same high school. We met actually when we both attended a college orientation event at the college president’s home.

I am embarrassed to say that not only did it take me four years to meet her, it also took me four years for my first date with a girl. If it was not for her I would have gone dateless through high school. All right I got that out of the way.

We did however have our own friends we wanted to spend time with also at the park. So we went in separate buses with our friends and hung out with them for half the night and then met up later. The night was a typical June night in Southern California. It was about seventy degrees at ten P. M.

I hung out with my buddies in the hub of Disney land watching the waves of people wander around the park. I kept looking at my watch. The magic moment in the magic kingdom had arrived. It was time to go meet my grad nite date. I made my way across the park which was not easy with thousands of people I had to make my way through.

We met in frontier land and walked around for about an hour. We found a place to sit and drink a coke. We did not have really any more to talk about than I had with my friends earlier. Whatever we had once, which was not much, was gone. We decided for each of us to find our friends and call our grad night together a night. I did not see her again until we got to college where she started dating a college junior before the first week of the semester ended. But I will never forget my Disney grad nite; that Mr. Toads Wild Ride was killer…
