Finally Hitting Senior Year

The moment I could call myself a Senior was the moment I began to look back on Freshman year. It’s all blur now, as if those days we're so far away, even when only a few years have gone by. Lots of things have changed, a lot has stayed the same. I’ve done a lot of things that I could list, going on and on, but I don’t think I have to. Everyone has experienced life in high school, and those memories last forever. It may be a pain in the moment, but these memories will be brought back with a smile.

The first day, the first step, it all is different. I for instance fell off my bus seat, but other’s tell a story of their own, that is theirs alone. The first all the one’s that will always be imprinted in our minds. Our first date, first kiss, first love, first love lost, first time driving, first car, first accident. First failure, first success. These memories are now only things we recall, but that means that we will never lose them.

I now know people who have driven me insane, people I’ll never forget, people I’ll be glad to never seen again, and people I will cry for when they leave. I remember my crushes, especially those that I thought were love. I remember fights, make-ups, all the pointless stuff that had been forgotten by the next day. I can recall all the people I have come to hate, and the person I hated. I’ve gained and lost, but in reality the important thing was that I made it through it all.

Everything that has happened since I stepped on my bus the first day has changed my life, and shaped my world. The things I’ve written, read, and done, all were part of the moment. I’ve cried and yelled and broken down completely, but I’ve laughed and learned and shared with some of the best people I have ever met.

Though it was a pain to go through, I believe I’ve come to love my high school experience. The ups and downs and what I became because of it.
