Impending Graduation

This is to all the future high school graduates out there.

It's exciting at first, being the big dogs in the school, but as the year goes on, fear starts to settle in, and nerves kick in. You're scared of what the future holds, for the past 13 years you've had something to wake up to each year, though you may have loved it, hated it, dreaded it, it was something that was stable, constant, and unchanging but everchanging as we grew older.

Now that the end is near, knowing that you won't have something to wake up to anymore, that you won't have your friends to surround you each day, it's hard to handle. I know. I'm right there while I'm typing it. Believe me, it's rough, and its hard to handle on your own, but this is what they call growing up.

Growing up...is doing this on your own. Walking across that stage, you may believe you're not ready, but that's what makes you so ready to cross that point in time, you're ready, and now that time has come.

You won't always have your friends crowding you, friends will change as time passes, you may wish for your highschool days back, but that's all they will be. Wishes.

So treasure each moment, and make as many memories while you can, learn what you can while you're still in school, let yourself grow in this year, leave the drama alone...its not worth it.

This is your final year, take it by storm.

Back to School

Tomorrow, I return to high school and finish my final quarter. I am both nervous and excited to know this has finally come. I just hope I can deal with the pressures of being back, and with handling being around other people. I know I can succeed, but I also know that I will be challenged to complete all my courses in order to walk across the stage in May.

If you're just now tuning into my blog, I am a new mom, who is suffering from post-partum depression and post-partum anxiety, along with post traumatic stress disorder. I had to take the past quarter of school off so that I could focus on my recovering. I have accomplished alot.
