To my graduating class,
We’ve been waiting for our senior year for the past couple years and we finally made it. To be completely honest, I can not wait to move far far away from our stupid little town and most of you. I wish I could say that I loved high school like a lot of people can, but moving to our school was honestly one of the worst decisions my family has made. Due to me being allergic to chlorine and our school not having a pool, I didn’t really have a choice though.
I’ve been trying to make the best out of this place since I moved here Freshman year. I’ve met some incredible people and quite a few horrible people. Whether you had a positive or negative impact on the past 3 or 4 years of my life I genuinely hope that once we are done with this stupid high school and everyone goes their own ways, that you are happy and successful with whatever it is you’re doing or wherever you may be.
I’m still counting down the days until June 5th when I’m finally done with everything here. I can not wait to move to college and away from here. I’m sure some of you feel the same. I’m not really sure why most people here are so mean and negative, but I hope those of you who are changing and like I said before, end up happy in a good place.
A lot of people say high school is the best years of your life and I’m just being honest but these past 4 years have been hell. I miss my old high school and would do anything to go back there. On the other side, there have been some really good moments. The football team won the conference thing (I don’t remember what it’s called exactly I’m sorry) this year, our marching band keeps winning just like they do every year, our cheerleaders got 1st place at their first competition, TV News is still one of the best things about our school (most of you hate it but the people in it love it so), the art department is still kicking ass like always, TSA wins stuff all the time, most (practically all) of our sports teams are so good, I could go on for a while about some good things about it.
Whether you loved high school or hated it, we went through it together, and on graduation day everything changes. We either go on to college, work, whatever you may be doing after this. It’s the start of the rest of our lives. So, if you love high school, or hate it like I do, make the most out of the rest of this year. This is the last time we get to be high schoolers. Stop hating each other for no reason, stop spreading rumors, stop believing rumors you hear, make new friends, forgive people for the stupid bullshit they did or didn’t do, and have fun because like I said before, this is it. Before you know it we’ll be sitting on the football field on June 5th listening to the words, “Congratulations class of 2018”.
Sincerely,
Your classmate who was ready to graduate last year.
