Wow,

I’ve noticed that I’ve spent a lot of time on here (and just in general) feeling sorry for myself and complaining about how I, and others, have prevented me from achieving my ultimate goals in high school, and how I have prevented myself from achieving a lot of things just in life, or how I don’t have everything I want morally or spiritually or what have you. But here’s the thing; just because my high school career is about to be over in a very short amount of time, it’s not like that’s it. Once high school is over I will never have any chances to do anything ever again. That’s completely false. If anything, going to college is going to be the perfect time to change and start over. And all of these experiences in my life, even those that I am still working through, have shaped and molded me into who I am today. I have learned from a few of my mistakes, and I am still learning from others. And it is not over, there is still much I have left to learn, and I’m ready for it. And as far as not having everything I’ve wanted, like the support of friends, or getting to know certain people better or anything else like that, that’s total crap. I have spent the better part of the last four years getting to know and relate, and build relationships with these people. For some it’s been even longer. It is crazy how long I’ve known some of these people, and how close I’ve gotten to others in such a short amount of time. And I am blessed to know all of them and call them my friends, or even to just be able to say, “Yeah, I went to high school with them. I had English with them my senior year” etc. And I am grateful to know every single one of them, because I guarantee each person I have met/known has taught me something and contributed to making me the person I am today. And that’s truly an amazing thing. And I am so thankful to have had such a wonderful experience in high school, and I’m so prepared to take on whatever adventures come next. :)
