It seems like just yesterday, I was riding a schoolbus for the first time. Last year saw me attend my first day of public school, and on Monday, I will attend my last.
(sigh)
It doesn't seem fair, hoenstly. I have met so many people who I have grown to love so much, and now, I have to say goodbye. It seems as quickly as I started, I am ending. I really don't have many words to say about this, because I'm not sure how to feel- I've never had to feel quite like this before.
On one hand, I'm excited. This fall, I will attend Indiana Wesleyan University, where I will work for the school paper, The Sojourn. I can't wait to start classes, and see my amazing friends who will also be attending.
I'm also nervous. These high school buildings are all I've known for two years now, both during the day and at work. I'm anxious about leaving these firmiliar halls, because I know that I can own them.
I'm sad, more than anything else though. It hasn't quite hit me yet, but I can't even describe how much I'm going to miss these people. Students and teachers alike, they've all helped shape me into who I am today.
I see some people in class who say they cannot wait to get out of here and graduate. They disgust me. They don't appreciate high school like I do, they don't know how great it is.
I can only hope that the next chapter in my book goes even better.
To all my friends at Western Brown and Southern Hills,
I love you guys,
