To The People I Graduated With: One Year Later

Just a little hello from someone who misses you dearly.

To The People I Graduated With: One Year Later
Ashley Yakopec

To my former classmates:

It's been a year since we closed the door to the thing we call high school. Do you remember this time last year as we were preparing to graduate? There are countless memories of happiness, laughter, and sometimes even tears. (Field day brought a lot of emotions forward.) I miss you guys. I look back at photos and smile, and sometimes even wish to be back in the same moments again; to relive those moments one more time.

I miss you guys.

I remember so many of our teachers telling us to soak in all the memories we could possibly hold onto because this time goes by quick. All of them were right. Time and time again we were told to have fun and make memories, and I would like to think we did just that.

Although we might all be home for breaks, some things just might not be the same. We've all changed and matured into amazing women, and it's always great to see just how successful each of you are, even if we are not on the same paths as we used to be. I look back and remember all the countless memories each of us made with each other and I'm so incredibly grateful for the time we got to spend with each other.

I wish you all the best in your future endeavors, and I can't wait to see some of you again this summer! As for the class of 2017, I wish you all the best, and I hope you enjoy the "lasts" of your lasts of high school. Although it's almost over, make sure you enjoy the remainder of these moments, as they are precious, and you can't ever get them back.

Love,

A Fellow Classmate

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
