End of High School
Today I was talking to my brother about college and he asked me what my life is going to look like next year. In all honesty, I have no idea, where I am going to attend university and how different my life is going to look like next year. I still feel like a junior (as that was the last time I attended school in person). Although I am super excited for my journey next year, there is a part of me that is going to be sad to leave my brother and family behind. It is a normal part of growing up, but it is going to be super weird not attending Donna Klein next year. I am going to miss the friendships I have made and the incredible teachers who I have had throughout the past four years who have ultimately become my mentors.
Right now I am trying to spend as much time as I could with my friends and family as this chapter of my life is coming to an end. Strangely enough, I think I am even going to miss Boca Raton. The beach, the weather, and all of the nature centers in South Florida. It is crazy to me that I have been on the same campus since I was practically born, so next year will be totally different but in a great way.
Although this year has not been normal in any way, shape, or form. I have made the most incredible memories this year. Ones that will remain close to my heart for the rest of my life. Throughout the past four years of high school, I have definitely changed for the best, become mature, and figured out my future aspirations. When I look back at my four years I am proud of the person I have become today and even prouder that I have been able to be a role model for my younger brother.
How do you feel about your high school experience coming to an end?

You aren't alone in feeling sad and excited at the same time Sarah. It's crazy to think in less than two months we're done with high school forever (well classes at least). I haven't even been here for that long but it feels like a lifetime. It can feel scary to know we're all moving on, but I can't wait! There are so many fun new things we'll get to try. The future is infinitely exciting :)
ReplyDeleteFeeling sad is something that is very normal but this is the beginning of the rest of our lives and thing will only move up from here.
