Senior Year In One Word: Unfinished

I'm in the class of 2020 and I need closure.

Senior Year In One Word: Unfinished

My last day of high school was supposed to be May 8th. My actual last day was March 16th. I had no idea that that'd be the last day I walked the halls of LHS. I would've appreciated it a little more if I would've known.

I won't hear the bell ring for the last time. I won't be at another pep assembly. I won't be able to take "Last Day" pictures. I won't be able to tell my teachers goodbye. I won't able to tell my friends goodbye. I won't be able to pick a "class song". When we finally have our graduation in June, i doubt I'll even be able to recognize half of the people I went to school with.

I was apart of a job shadowing program called "GOCAPS" and I loved that class. I got to job shadow the career I dream of doing. When I found out I couldn't shadow Pediatric Occupational Therapy anymore I was devastated.

I decorated my graduation cap. My family from Texas is coming up to see me walk across the stage. I'm happy I at least get to walk across the stage since I've done nothing but work hard since day 1.

I will never be able to finish my senior year. I won't be able to go back in time and live through all the little details of the last few months of my senior year. I won't be able to relate to anyone else's senior year except those in my own class. I will never know what it's like to finish my senior year in high school. Instead, I finished my senior year stuck inside my house and doing online classes.

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!
