雙語部 Class of 2007 畢業感言

施藇涵  

球場上的微風會再次吹起那年夏天的味道

這是我的學校。

幼稚園的我常常在睡午覺時說要上廁所，不知道讓老師罵了幾遍。不過老師罵完總是丟一句：快去快回。然後五、六個小朋友就會跳起，啪噠啪噠跑到門口穿鞋子 -- 大家都憋不住嘛。

上了小學的我還沒經歷過水痘的煎熬，我老媽出了餿主意，要我跟最近出水痘剛剛康復返校的同學做朋友，好讓我染上一身紅點點。或許我是太聽話了吧，我真的走上前：妳要跟我玩跳繩嗎？

中學時運動會耀眼的藍天，白色的線條繞著紅土的跑道，我們的腳步掀起地上的塵灰；一個不經意，我跌倒了。記得教練很兇的叫我站起來，罵我連試都不試；可是我真的我試了，只是實在站不起來。記得好多我不認識的人上前抱我，抱得好緊好緊，似乎不想給我機會哭出來。也記得被別人說我裝受傷，有夠囂張。

你們的話我都聽進去了，手裡緊握的課本我也讀過了。

但是這裡青澀的回憶還沒成熟。我將它們晒乾，燙平，反折，加糖，浸泡。等著回憶成熟時，我會在走廊裡唱起歌，在自己的回音中漫步。我們會到樹下掃葉子，而且因為不小心掃得太乾淨，會被派去掃更長的走道。球場上的微風也會再次吹起那年夏天的味道。

這裡即將不再屬於我了，我也再沒有機會穿上那粉紅色的制服。

但是這裡永遠會是我的曾經。

不禁有種放不下的感覺

高中的時光如沙粒一般不斷的從指縫中流逝。越是想握緊剩下時間，越是感覺到它的消失。剛上高中時，我跟同學常常抱怨學習有多麼無聊，討論著如果不用上學，就可以去看電影或出國玩之類的話題。現在我們的願望即將實現了，而且我也高興能夠畢業，但卻不禁有種放不下的感覺。光陰無法重新來過，而我現在能做的是繼續向前走。路途上我一定會遭遇困難和沮喪，而那個時候，我總可以回頭看看高中生活中留下的無數回憶，提醒自己已經走了多遠，告訴自己還可以繼續向前。

因為有你們，我以後會更好！

終於要離開這生活了十二年的環境，有機會去真正認識不一樣的人，學習不同的文化、思想和習慣；也終於會有機會去接觸我一直想要嘗試，卻沒時間接觸的事物：跟著Peace Corps 去奈及利亞、南美洲及許多其他較未開發的國家去見識，並盡我能力所及的範圍去幫助與交流。因此，在上大學之前，希望先花些時間做些不一樣的事，試著找尋自己人生中的方向與自我意義，探索世界上更多更多有趣的事物，了解生命的奇妙以及人類與地球的微妙關係。所以，我很高興畢業了！倒不是說畢業之前無法這麼做，而是將畢業這件事當成一個里程碑，讓自己知道已經走了這麼遠了，在接下來的未來中也不能氣餒、放棄，要繼續不斷的努力。社會給予我們的第一階段的訓練已經完成，該是收成的時候了。而我能夠有這樣的自知，也非常謝謝這十二年來無數老師的教導、家人的支持以及同學的扶持。因為有你們，我以後會更好！

離開台灣，比我想像的要困難得多

    要畢業了，真的很捨不得。從小學一年級就讀雙語部至今，我在這個學校待了整整十二年；現在要走了，感覺就像要搬家。我還記得學校還沒有HiLife的時候，或雙語部的新大樓還沒蓋的時候；時光飛逝，這些年學校有了很大的改變。要走了，心裡有些許感傷, 有點希望可以在這裡多留幾年，因為我怕面對大學生活將有的許多不習慣；但其實還是很期待去上大學，只是，離別此刻我突然發現，離開台灣，比我想像的要困難得多。

我們 最後的結果

過去十二年
　

子、丑、寅、卯、辰、巳、午、未、申、酉、戌、亥
人生的規律，不斷的看著我們進步
煎、煮、滷、燉、烤、炸
人生的歷練，不斷的讓人成長
音、商、角、公
人生的音節，代表著心情的轉折
綠、藍、紅
人生的基礎，學習的原因
黑、白
無所不在的對錯，我們的選擇
我們
最後的結果

這裡也變成了我的家

時間過得真快，一轉眼十二年就這麼過去，帶給我很多的回憶。實驗中學不只是我的學校，這麼多年培養出來的感情，這裡也變成了我的家。多少年來看著十二年級的學長畢業，沒想到今年就輪到我了。心裡當然有相當多的不舍，然而高中只是學習過程的一部份，後面還有很長的路要走。我會想念大家，也要感謝陪我一路走來的朋友和那麼多的好老師。

盧楷文  

非常感謝有幸認識的好老師以及好友

        再過差不多一個月，就必須要離開實驗中學了。回想起來已經在這裡讀了整整十二年的書，而即將畢業的這個事實還是令人難以置信。這十二年來我經歷了許多風波，不論是在課業還是生活上，但無論如何我都非常感謝有幸認識的好老師以及好友；我永遠懷念他們所帶來的回憶，也希望以後都不會忘記他們。這一年雖然稱得上是最辛苦的，但相對的我也學到了很多，老師也真是辛苦了，謝謝。

許怡玫  

感謝、希望、祝福

數一數，在實中已經十年；今年要畢業了；離開這溫馨的環境，又興奮又害怕。在實中的這十年內我學習了許多，很感謝每一位幫助我、教導我的老師，也希望學弟妹好好珍惜在實中的時光！更祝福我們這一屆畢業生都能順利入自己心中的理想的大學。

The bell calls the ending of this scene, as we shuffle off stage to the second act. Eyes rehearsing scripts while feet rehearsing steps

Our last act wasn't perfect, but it sure was fun. The last twelve scenes weren't sublime; they were real. As if the audience didn’t have enough of our tragic affairs, our great betrayals, our passionate love

Thus we graze off the field, one in many theaters that plays tonight, each beating the other in grandiose and design. We are but one, but tonight, on one cares

Our hearts, while playing softly to the lullaby of approval and dissent, sings as the back stage cue flashes green. Restraining songs of the heart, and singing lines on the script

A beautiful melody washing over the beholder, who could tell it was not our theme?

Just as we crept through the songs, as our emotions took over the tune, and our confidence taking over the moves

So the red light flashes

So the curtain falls

But when our act is called

Will there e no applause?

        If there ever was something bittersweet, it's graduation. Leaving behind friends who in some cases have been around for over a decade, saying goodbye to a family who has nurtured and raised you from birth, and stepping out of a place in which you have been forever living; it really is a tough moment. There is an innumerable amount of memories carried with us as we depart, and an innumerable amount left behind. Stepping out into the great unknown, we leave behind not only friends, family, and high school, but also the collective identity of NEHS that has defined us for so long.

        But at the same time, we step from a page of complicated histories and images carved in stone into a blank slate, free to remake ourselves into whomever we want, free to forge a new name for ourselves. The fifty-one seniors of the National Experimental High Scho0ol, Bilingual Department, are on the verge of building new friendships, seeing a new world, and living a new life. It is with great sadness, and great excitement, that I step from the place that has defined who I am today, and into a new phase of my life.

It's a typical morning, dashing through the hallways and tumbling into the classroom before 7:40 am. But somewhere between racing with time and zooming by the familiar yellow bricked buildings, everything freezes. As I am leaving for home one night after school, I see a little girl sitting alone on top of one of the huge slides that used to be in front of the Bilingual Department. Big round tears stain her clothes because Daddy forgot to pick her up right after school. A wan smile wedges its way between my lips as I take a good look at the Bilingual Department, the place that I have learned to call home for twelve years. Everything is so familiar in this cozy family of students, teachers, and administrators. Even as I flutter through these last few weeks, it never really hits me that soon I will have to leave; it seems like these eminent NEHS days will never come to an end. NEHS is the root to the blooming flower I have become and graduation will always be bittersweet. But now I'd like to think of high school as the prologue of my very own storybook. Graduation is not an ending, it's only the beginning.

        I was thinking about the things that haven't changed in the Bilingual Department in my twelve years at NEHS; and the one thing that comes to mind, that isn't the horrendous amount of homework, is our thirty-second school “bell.” The song is the most overplayed piece of music in my life, and only the garbage truck song comes any eons near to the number of times I've listened to the bell. The bell usually means one of two things: class time or break time. To the first one, I cringe in fear and irritation. To the latter, I sigh in relief. And those two reactions are exactly how I feel about graduating. Thanking the Lord it's over, yet, scared witless at the same time! It's bittersweet to leave NEHS after so many years. The memories we have shared will not go away just because we are leaving. Friendships made will not diminish just because we do not end up together. The time we spend at NEHS will be forever remembered and cherished by each and every one of us. Yes, even memories of the bell!
