Life is good now. Tomorrow will be my last class of summer school, and then I will be with no obligation until I move back up to College Station. I can tell that I’m really ready to move back; tonight, I reorganized all of my photos and labeled them according to the year in school, in anticipation of packing my stuff. It’s funny though. I forgot how many good memories I have had, which gets me thinking that I’m so lucky to have friends and family members who share a genuine love for me. Thank you family and friends.
As I was going through all of my photos, I began to think about how much my life has changed in one year. Back in high school, I started to “lose” my friends my senior year. They all wanted to do drugs and have sex—-something which I was not for, and as a result, I became pretty independent my senior year. I had friends outside of the high school “bubble,” and I molded myself into who I wanted to be without the incessantness of high school peer pressure. Now, I can reminisce, and I am glad the way things went. I believe it has made me a better person. Isn’t that all that matters anyways?
And now, I look to the future. As I have said before, I see this year as a great opportunity to enjoy life to the fullest. I have made friends and have established myself for who I want to be. The uncertanity of how my life can mold out is what I thrive on. We all like a surprise, and life is the biggest one that there is.
