Senior Lunch at E.I.S.

Being a Senior is totally different compared to being a Freshmore or a Junior. It’s a different feeling, you have different goals, different attitude and way of thinking, and you turn out to be more mature than years before. One thing that makes the Senior year more interesting is the Senior Privileges that the authorities of the school allow us to have. Among those privileges, Senior Lunch is one of them.
It’s about being together with all the Seniors and sharing nice moments. My lunch took place at E.I.S. in December. Every single one of us was wearing decent and very appealing attires. Girls were using long and short dresses, using a lot of makeup and nice hair. Boys were using expensive clothing, dazzling shoes and pleasant cologne. The food was organized by staff members of the caseta. It cost L. 150 per student in order to make this possible.
Weeks before this event, we were planning a gift exchange. It was well organized and everyone participated, even teachers. The minimum limit to spend was L. 500. These gifts were scheduled to be delivered minutes before we started eating. Each of us had to stand up in front of everyone and say something about their secrete friend and the others had to guess who was it. Although people were embarrassed because of public speaking, it was very funny. We had such a great time.
After waiting to be told to approach the food tables and serve ourselves, we finally were told to do so. We were starving; the food looked appetizing, making the L.150 worth something. We then took a seat and enjoy the moment.
After this superb lunch, we had professional photographers take pictures of the whole group together. After we graduate this photos will be some of the things we will always remember. In my opinion this type of events are important because it makes us learn and be grateful for this type of moments. In the future, each of us will remember that day, they will remember this Senior Lunch and every other special events we have together.
