Tomorrow I will finish this chapter of my life. Yes, I have to wait until next week to move my tassel to the other side, but tomorrow is the last day I will wake up and rush to school (praying I’m not a second late for that 8 o clock bell) then sit in homeroom waiting for the day to begin. My work at Desert Christian is done. I tried to be the best I could be and I have grown in more ways than I imagined when I first walked on campus in 2007. I have made lasting friendships. I have discovered what it means to be and have a true friend. Ya know, everyone says the time goes by fast and it most certainly does. I remember when i was a sophomore I had senior friends who were graduating. I wanted to be there so badly, but now I look back and feel like that was only a couple months ago. Now I’m about to graduate and I find myself missing those times when I didn’t have to be making such big decisions or preparing to say goodbye to my friends.
To those who are still on that journey: Enjoy it. Even if you are going through a tough time, make the most of it. Don’t let people bring you down. Don’t let people change who you truly are. Stay close to those who support and love you no matter what.
Thank you to all who made me who I am today. Thank you to those who never gave up on me. Thank you to my parents who taught me that i need to love people even they will not love me in return. Thank you to my sister and brother in law who taught me to trust in God always. Thank you to my church family who never failed to encourage me. Thank you to Lauren for always guiding through hard times and showing me so much about myself. Thank you to Randsom for listening to me for hours and always being so understanding. Thank you to Mackie for always being honest with me and always looking out for me.
See you May 26th?
