First of all let me just congratulate you. You've made it through three years of high school and while it may not seem like that big of an accomplishment, it is. Everything from here is downhill. I thought I'd leave you with a little bit of insight for your senior year. Do with it as you please.
- Dress up for spirit weeks. Believe it or not the underclassmen look up to you & will start to participate if you do.
- TAKE CLASSES THROUGH A COMMUNITY COLLEGE. You'll thank me later for that one.
- Go to as many sporting events as you can. Some of your most cherished memories will surround these games. Also don't be afraid to be the loudest one cheering.
- Find a small group of friends and stick with them. Now don't take this the wrong way, make as many friends as you want just make sure to stick with some people.
- Reminisce everything. It's the last football game, last prom & last time walking through those front doors.
- Make every moment count. Remember after graduation you probably won't talk to 90% of your class.
- It's okay to wear sweatpants everyday. By this point, people really don't care what you wear just be comfortable and be yourself.
- Make time for your family. Believe it or not, they will miss you next year & these are the last things they're going to remember before you move away.
- Work can wait. Now I'm not saying quit your job, just make sure to take days off to enjoy life.
- Forgive but don't forget. A lot of things have probably happened over the past 3 years, forgive those people but don't let them do you wrong again.
- Have fun. If you aren't having fun, change the way you approach things.
- Take LOTS of pictures. You're going to want to remember these moments later in life.
- Smile. You'd be surprised what a simple smile can do to change your whole day or someone else's. Especially senior year when half the class has no clue what they're doing with their life.
- And lastly, enjoy every single minute of it. Don't let one day drag you down because in less than a year you'll be out of there forever. The world is a big place but you'll be able to handle it by then.
Good luck!!
