high school

Jack Graham and Rachael Green are high school sweethearts at Meadowdale HS in Washington. The two have been dating since they were 15.

“We already knew we were going to be with each other for the rest of our lives,” Jack said.

Meadowdale HS allows students to choose who they sit next to for graduation, so, of course, Jack and Rachael chose to sit next to each other. That's when Jack went off-script. Jack pretended to fall after receiving his diploma, Racheal came to help him up and BOOM!

“It was a perfect proposal,” Jack said. “Everyone was watching me.”

The roaring applause from the proposal drowned out the names that followed and that's why the school decided to withhold the diploma.

Jack has since apologized and finally got his diploma.

Kids these days just do the damndest things, man. I thought it was an elaborate ploy to spell a chick's name out in a cake, intentionally humilate oneself on a stage with a bare-chested proclamation/question; but no, we had to break through the ceiling and head for heights better left unexplored...Big ups, bro. Big ups. 

High school prom is that special time of in a boy's life when all of his friends get prom dates and he doesn't because he waited until the last second to ask that cute girl from his English Lit class.
