Kristin: I would like to start by thanking everyone for coming to today's graduation ceremony. I started at Degrassi as a transfer student. My father is in the military, so I moved around often. I didn't think I would make friends or have a boyfriend or even be someone that my classmates would remember, but I came back and someone finally pushed me to become more social. I didn't want to open up because I was afraid that I would have to leave again. Now I have all the things I thought I could not. I have a boyfriend that is amazing and helped me through a tough time.
