Senioritis is Real

Believe me when I say senioritis is real. If you're reading this and your not a senior prepare yourself for your senior year because if your not it will both you I the butt. They say that senior year is supposed to be your easiest year but I disagree with that. I feel like your senior year is the fire before the storm. It's not like I made my senior difficult on purpose, I made it reasonably a challenge to prepare me for what comes next. Something's that have helped me this year is all the school and extracurricular activity. If I wasn't so busy, then I wouldn't be the hard worker I am today.

So here's some advice to all the non seniors: Be involved.

I know it's super basic to suggest that and I sound like a vice principal, but it's true. The busier you are the less likely you are to get into trouble, and stray from your end path of graduating. Plus you make some wonderful friends.

Honestly if it wasn't for school I wouldn't have meet some of my best friends or became as close with my sister. That's another thing to, this may be over exaggerated, but without friends I don't think I could have survived high school. Because in all honesty high school can be hell, and it will push you to limits you didn't even know you had. You have to go through what feels like an obstacle course to just enter another obstacle course but that's just life. And you know what it's helpful when you have people like Izzy, Sean and Emily to cheer you on the whole time.

So that's some more advice for the non seniors, don't waste your time with “fake” people and friends find the people that make you a better. My first two years of high-school I was not the nicest to my family and I didn't treat them with the respect and love they deserved. My logic was that I could treat them like that because they have unconditional love for me but I had the wrong mind set. They deserved the best out of me and it made home life difficult at times when we were constantly arguing about what now seems like the dumbest stuff. People will come and go but your family will always be their, which is an important thing I learned and I use it daily. So it's not worth holding any grudges. Just in general it's not worth holding any grudges. Because really life is just way too short to be sour.

That's probably the most important thing I've learned throughout all the years of school and 17 years of life, embrace every single moment you have, don't rush through things, don't count down the hours, don't wish for anything else other than the life that your living right now.

Now being a senior and all, every memory I have is so sentimental, because I'm going to miss a lot of things and people. When I look back on many of my memories I feel very nostalgic and I can't help feeling a bit sad because life was so simple and easy when I was a child and now a lot has changed in my life sense then, some things for the better.

Last of all my final advice is to live with no regrets, and be the best you, you can be because “those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.”
