Thursday marked the end of highschool for me, and as a result, a new beginning. I have no idea what I'll end up doing with my life, but I sincerely hope whatever it is, I love it. This whole week was crazy, and something I'll savor for a very long time. When I went up to get my diploma, my principal looked at me and said "Look around, because this is likely the last time you'll see all of these people in the same room again." It was such a shock, because I had never thought of it like that before. But that is the harsh reality- as much as you try to keep in touch, I'll probably never talk to some of these people again. Already people are starting to leave, friends that I've known for the last 13 years. It's all so surreal. Sort of like when you go to camp and form all those special bonds, and then you have to leave.

I'm excited and terrified.
