Fireworks-Katy Perry Traditional sing-a-long
1
“Firework – a combustible or explosive device for producing a string
display of light or a loud noise, used for signaling or part of a celebration”.
A song typically serves as the theme for our EOPS End of the Year Celebration. This
year our students selected the song “Firework” by Katy Perry. “Firework” I said,
what’s that about? I hadn’t heard the song because well…. I am more of an “old
school funk” kind of gal. So to make sure the song was appropriate, I asked the students to play the song. They also printed the lyrics so I could read along. It quickly
became apparent as to why they selected this song for our celebration theme.
The lyrics tell a story of a person that feels he/she is floating, aimlessly and unconfidently not having a direction. The song challenges the person to take the chance and
ignite the light inside of them and OPEN the doors they feel are closed… WOW…I
think we all have been there at one time or another.
Many of you are reaching an important pinnacle in your educational journey that
brings you to this celebration of your excellence. Some of you may have thought
being here today at this place, at this time, was a far reaching possibility or better
said maybe impossibility. But your determination and courage let you dream, shoot
across the sky and ignite that “firework” inside you…and we are glad and very proud
you did! Because you see…what we can do in EOPS is limited unless YOU decide to
make your dream a reality. You MUST believe in yourself, do the hard work and bust
down the doors of insecurity and doubt.
I once read a quote “don’t look at your life through a rear view mirror”… and this is
so true for many of us. When you are first generation college student, English language learner, starting at the beginning with skill building classes, undocumented, or
economically unable to go directly to the four year university after high school but
you had the grades to go, it is so easy to get caught up in feeling like your past determines your future. But as we know that is not the case! Take in this moment, own
your place, and feel a sense of pride. YOU DESERVE IT!
2
Some of you will not be returning to EOPS next semester because you will be moving on but know you have left us all in “awe” of your accomplishments. You walk
through one door on to the next on your journey be it the workforce or a four
year university. But you are not the same person as when you started Sacramento City College. Today and always you will shine brighter and more confident of
your light.
So although you may not be here physically you will always be “FAMILIA”. EOPS
will connect us. It is a distinction that separates you from other community college students. We hope that it was during those times in which you felt you did
not belong, college was not for you, you were “wasted space”, that EOPS made a
difference. The staff and faculty of EOPS hope that we played a small role in keeping you in college, supporting you through, and encouraging you on.
Before ending I would like to thank our/your wonderful EOPS Student Assistants –
Andrea, Ariel, Calvin, Carlesha, Mee, and Sammy – they organized this entire
event. They worked hard to make this occasion special for you and your family.
On behalf of the proud staff and faculty of EOPS welcome and thank you for honoring us with your presence at this year’s celebration.
Si Se Puede! Un gran abrazo del corazón/Yes it can be done! A big hug from the
heart,
Irma Rodriguez, EOPS/CARE Coordinator

The Student is…
The most important person on the campus. Without them there
would be no need for the institution.
Not a cold enrollment statistic but a flesh and blood human being
with feelings and emotions like our own.
Not someone to be tolerated so that we can do our thing. They are
our thing.
Not dependent on us. Rather we are dependent on them.
Not an interruption of our work, but the purpose of it. We are not
doing them a favor by serving them. They are doing us a favor by
giving us the opportunity to do so.

"Firework"
Katy Perry
Do you ever feel like a plastic bag
Drifting through the wind, wanting
to start again?
Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin
Like a house of cards, one blow
from caving in?
And when it's time you'll know
Do you ever feel already buried
deep six feet under?
Screams but no one seems to hear
a thing
Do you know that there's still a
chance for you
'Cause there's a spark in you?
'Cause, baby, you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're
worth
Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y
You just gotta ignite the light and
let it shine
Just own the night like the 4th of
July
'Cause, baby, you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're
worth
Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y
Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colours burst
Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah"
You're gonna leave 'em all in awe,
awe, awe
You just gotta ignite the light and
let it shine
Just own the night like the 4th of
July
Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colours burst
Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah"
You're gonna leave 'em all in awe,
awe, awe
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon,
moon, moon
It's always been inside of you, you,
you
And now it's time to let it throughough-ough
'Cause, baby, you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're
worth
Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y
You don't have to feel like a wasted
space
You're original, cannot be replaced
If you only knew what the future
holds
After a hurricane comes a rainbow
Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colours burst
Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah"
You're gonna leave 'em all in awe,
awe, awe
Maybe a reason why all the doors
are closed
So you could open one that leads
you to the perfect road
Like a lightning bolt, your heart will
glow
Boom, boom,
Even brighter
moon, moon
Boom, boom,
Even brighter
moon, moon
boom
than the moon,
boom
than the moon,
15
Maybe the reason why all the doors are
closed so you can open one that leads
you to the perfect road.
Remember that you choose the
path that you want to be on.
