THE PENULTIMATE... wait... FINAL BLOG POST- Ariel Magin Week 22

    It is officially the second to last blog post! I could be horribly wrong here, but I'm 90% sure I'm right. As it turns out, this is actually the final blog post. Good thing I fact-checked.  This is a strange one for me as I'm writing this on my brother's computer as mine is dead and I use his charger which he left at school. I never found out what happened to my charger, either way, I'm not taking my Chromebook to college. I'll just give it to my uncle to use an ashtray. Seriously though, I'm going to keep it for its sentimental value which far outweighs its actual value. Speaking of sentimental value, these blogs will be great nostalgia inducers pretty soon. I know that a few months into college I'm going to remember about these and pull it up and hopefully laugh, not break down entirely... pfft come on maaaaaan. 

    While these blog posts were a burden, to speak with complete candor, looking back on them they'll serve as a great reminder of the past year. In my eyes, it will be a better reflection of our senior year, rather than a time capsule specifically meant for the "Covid times." I know that's the intended purpose, but I know I won't view it that way in the future. My 18, 19, possibly 20-year-old self will look back at these blogs and be like "huh... not much has changed," and I'm happy about that. I don't understand it when people change so drastically just because they're entering a new stage of their lives. I'll always be the same person, just in different places with different faces, shoelaces.... uh... something something aces. 

    This final blog is making me start to actually reminisce about the past 4 years. I remember so distinctly still our first all-school tefillah as freshmen and the older kids were chanting "4 more years, 4 more years!" I also remember when we were able to walk down the hallway in whichever direction we pleased. 

    Anyways, I guess this is me signing off. If I could leave you all with a parting thought it would be... I left the cash inside the --.
