For the last four years, we've spent nearly all of our days together in the same old place, eagerly waiting in line to graduate. Finally, our year has come. Outside of those red and black doors, adulthood awaits.
In a few short months, we will all walk across that stage and step out into the real world. It's scary to think about how close it actually is, all of the stress, testing, homework, and all-nighters will finally pay off.
When we all take a look back at high school, hopefully, we will think of all the good times we've shared as opposed to the bad.
It's true when they say there's a last time for everything; whether it be our last prom, football game, or homecoming- it's all becoming very surreal.
Soon, we will all part ways and go in every direction. We will probably see each other seldom after this. It's crazy to even think that we won't see most of the people we've literally grown up with.
Don't count the days, make the days count.
We spend so much time wanting to leave, that we forget to stop and appreciate. We don't realize these truly are some of the best times of our lives.
So, as our year draws to an end, take a second to cherish the people around you.
High School can be either the best ride or the worst, but it's definitely what you make of it. It's always best to have no regrets, especially when the time comes for us to leave.
So thank you, LCHS for giving us the best of friends, teachers, and the best of times.
I hope everyone in our class succeeds with whatever comes next.
"All in, LC"
