High School is done!! Well, almost, I still have to go to Chemistry for the next two days, but that's no problem! It's so crazy to be planning graduation parties, talking about caps and gowns, and to already be saying goodbye to some of my friends. I remember walking the halls freshman year, wondering where in the world I was going. Now, instead of walking the halls for the first time, I'm about to walk across the stage. Even though I complain about high school and how horrible it was, I must admit I had a pretty good run. I mean how many peolple can say they marched in the Macy's Parade and played in Carnegie Hall all in the same year...well I can! It's been a great four years, but it's time to move on.

Two Weeks

Well, there are about two weeks left until I graduate from the school where I have spent the last four years of my life. Two weeks until I leave the majority of my friends, in search of the new adventures that are out there waiting for me. I always say that I am really excited to graduate, and that I just can't wait to move on. That's mainly true, but after thinking, there are several things I am going to miss. I won't be able to look after my woodwinds in band anymore, or hear my band director say something completely ridiculous, or listen to my Spanish teacher ramble about Watergate. I will no longer be able to go hiking with my same group of friends on the weekend or sleep in my Gov/Econ class (Hey, don't judge me, we have all slept in a class at some point in our life). The thing I will miss most however, will be my best friend. I'll no longer have him around to encourage me to move on when I feel like giving up, or his shoulder to lay my head on when I get sleepy in a movie, or all the pointless conversations we have. It'll be over. I have to start over, in hopes of finding a new best friend, someone to replace him. The difficult thing is though, I don't want to replace him.
