Freshman year was easily my all time favorite year of school by far, with 5th grade coming in as a close second.

I worked on this video for months, and I'm extremely proud of the way it turned out, from all of the videos I handpicked, down to the music I decided to use. The reason I chose to use videos from Snapchat is because my memories were captured where there was only laughter and joy contained in the moment.

I don't remember where I read this (I'm thinking it was probably a text post on Instagram or something), but there is so much responsibility that comes with living! When you're laughing, you just seem to forget about everything that stresses you out at least for that period of time. That, to me, is what Snapchat captures.

I hope you guys enjoy this look back on my first year of high school!
