It’s hard to believe that my four years of high school are coming to an end. I used to remember thinking about how far away my graduation was and how it seemed like I would be stuck here forever, but now with only a certain amount of time left, it makes me realize that I will truly miss this place.
One thing I will miss the most is all the relationships I have built over the last four years. I cherish everyone I have gotten comfortable around and I hope to be able to continue talking and hanging out after our graduation. I also wish the best of luck to those I have drifted apart from, even though we are not as close as we used to be. I will continue to cherish every moment my friends have given me. I am also extremely grateful for some of the teachers here. I see them as second parents and I am grateful for every life lesson that they have taught me.
On my first day of high school, I was nervous and extremely confused about what I was going to do with my life. I had a couple of friends and I was very shy. I had no path and was scared to go somewhere I had not been before, but now I am confident in what I know and how I should be treated. I am grateful for every experience I have gotten through my time here. Even though I am still a little nervous about my future plans, I know that all the teachers I have talked with about my uncertainty have helped me in a ton of different ways.
High school has given me a way to become more confident in who I am, and let me be more outgoing. This being my senior year, I have gone out and joined everything I wanted to, which has pulled me out of my comfort zone but has also given me new perspectives on everything.
I know as I walk across the stage into the next chapter of my life, I will definitely be afraid but also excited for what’s to come. Thank you for everything and everyone who has truly helped me through my highschool years.
