Senior mottos?

Its my senior year in high school and its that time of the year for me and my fellow students. In a week or so we will be picking out our motto, class flowers, etc. And we were asked to find some mottos and i am coming up blank. Now my mom has suggested that i look for the meanings of some flowers and use the flower/motto combination, but i i am still coming up blank. How bout it, anyone have any ideas for a senior class motto? If you know what a spicific flower means that would be great too. Thanks for any help.

Every New Beginning Comes From Some Other Beginning's End!

That was the one I voted for my senior year, we ended up with some Dr. Seuss one about shoes on your feet that I didn't like, kinda makes me think of kindergarten.

I don't remember my class motto, let the girls pick it out. Some I like though are...........

Ask not why, but instead why not

Good choices comes from experience, and experience, that comes from bad choices.

Learn from other's mistakes, life is to short to make them all yourself

I can't think of anymore, but look forward to seeing what other's suggest.

I remember ours. Class of 1995. "You can always retake a class, but you can never relive a party". Still rings true today.

thanks, guys. This helps a lot. Now that i know what some flowers mean (thanks luv4ford) and some more quotes maybe my class can now decide on something.

Oh mil1ion, i go to school in montana in a small small town called Sunburst just of the border (8 miles south of coutts/sweet grass on I-15) a long story short i am finishing my last year there as an exchange student.

Montana's flower is the Bitteroot, although you won't find any there, it pretty much only shows up in southern MT, usually around Dillon.

BTW, I have been to Sunburst, it really is smaller than small.

This is what you're looking for: the Victorian Language of Flowers -- http://www.apocalypse.org/pub/u/hilda/flang.html

You can do entire sentences just in flowers. If you've ever seen the movie "The Age of Innocence" you've seen how the Victorians used flowers to send messages.
