A Final Thank You.

 As we reach the conclusion of our high school career I thank you my dear classmates.

What seemed to be like yesterday is now thirteen years ago. Where did the time go?! On the first days of kindergarten I could not wait to depart and go home. Now, on the last days of high school it saddens me that I HAVE to depart and go home and for this, I blame you. As the last days approach us I reflect upon the good times which bring a glowing smile to my face. I have witnessed the changes which you have gone through and I am sure you have seen the changes I have gone through as well.  Through all the changes and through each year, friendships grew stronger.

      

        Because of you I learned how a smile can be contagious.

  

I give tremendous thanks to you all for sharing your kindness with me and showing me what a friend should be. The person I grew to be over the years was due to the people I was surrounded by each day. I learned how wonderful it can be to share laughter with the ones that mean a lot to you. I now understand how hard it can be to stay goodbye. In a couple days I will be leaving the ones I grew up with and the teachers that held my hand along the way, and this seems to be difficult. I cannot be more blessed and thankful for the last thirteen years that the good Lord has provided me with. Teachers and classmates, I ask you take more pride in yourselves.  It is you that I will remember when I reminisce on the best times throughout my education in Holbrook.  Words cannot describe how much I will miss you and the impact you have made in my life.

I appreciate that you all have given me a reason to be thankful. A friendship is something that means so much and can be found anywhere. I am lucky to say that I found several of my first friends here. I just hope you realize how much I truly admire you all. In a couple of days we will be moving on and moving forward as we have a beautiful life awaiting us and a million incredible memories and experiences to reflect on.

Thirteen beautiful years comes down to Friday, May 25, 2012.

And to my seniors in the fast lane……

Closing timeee, every new beginning comes from some other beginnings end. <3
