In the summer of 2015, my family moved to a new town, and with that comes change. I had to switch schools, make new friends, and a clean slate.

Although high school is confusing, it is a time in your life where you are finding yourself. I learned that I must experience things before I can learn for them. I would not take back anything that I have done up to this point because it has helped me grow as a person. Be yourself, and love who you are.
