Once A T-Bird, Always A T-Bird

Once A T-Bird, Always A T-Bird
Destiny Haunss

Being a senior in high school, not only did we "run" the school, but those where some of the most memorable months we will ever have from high school.

Starting off high school as a freshman, all we could say was "How many more days until senior year?" or "damn I wish I was a senior already." It came up fast and senior year was right around the corner. Although waking up at 5am to get ready and sit in classrooms that felt like a sauna, I will always cherish the memories.

1. Football Games

My school really loved the football nights and those games on Friday nights where nights where we all got together as a family and supported our classmates. It didn't matter if it was 80 degrees out and sweating or 20 degrees out and freezing, we all made an effort to show love and support to our Thunderbirds in the Bird Cage.

2. Senior Banquet

Senior Banquet was kind of like a "Pre Prom" just for us to come together and get ready for the big night. Banquet involved of dancing, food, and tears. As the night was coming to an end, we all sat down and cried as we watched our Senior Video of us from freshman to our final year in high school. That video showed us that even though we all may not get along, we can make it happen and make the memories and end our high school career on a good note.

3. Prom Night

Some say Prom would be the best night of your life but some also say it will be the worst night of your life. Prom was one to remember. Prom was a night where the girls can buy dresses that cost hundreds of dollars and spend a huge amount on their makeup and hair all just for one night. Prom was a night for the girls to feel like a princess being escorted by some boy. Our fairy tale dream came to life.

4. Graduation

The day came fast and it was time for us to all stand proud and say we made it. This was a day we all made it together. As we all sat in red and white, smiling, crying, and waving goodbye. It was finally our time to walk across the stage and shine as we get handed a diploma for all the accomplishes we made in the last four years. As the final announcement was called, we all stood tall and threw our hats in the air. High school came to an end.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
