    It's over, it's finally over and I never expected it to end this way. Highschool had so many turns for me, but what is an education without the trial and tribulations. Actually after I think about it, I do not have any regrets, sure I have lost some friends and made some new ones. But cycling through people is a part of life, I will always remember them and I hope that they will always remember me. Starting out as a freshman, the world seemed so big, but now that it is ending, I realize how small the world actually is. I mean, the world is so small, it can fit in the palm of my hand, along with my future. What I am trying to say is, graduation is not the end, on the contrary it is just an end to the prologue that is our lives. I think I would be lying if I said I wasn't scared, it is natural, but anyone who knows me, knows that I am not the kind of person to go down without one hell of a fight. I am more excited then frightened, I get to restart my life in a sense that I can choose the path for my life to follow, I am leaving the nest, and I couldn't be happier. I can take the classes that I want, when I want, how I want, and if I choose to sleep in class, or come in late, I can do that. I got into my #1 choice for school, many think I am stupid leaving the state for undergraduate. But it is funny I dont want to be another Floridian clone that attends UF, UCF,FSU, or USF just because tuition is free (bright futures) and they can be with their friends. It is my future, and according to me, I believe that WPI is my spot in the world for the next four years. I have a curriculum specificly designed for ME, and I am not willing to sit in a lecture hall with three hundred kids, and be lost amongst the faces of people who are exactly like me in all ways except for appearance. This is me, this is the birth of my collegiate life, I will always remember Florida, and I will keep in touch with my friends if they want. This little soliloquy was not designed to bash anybody, on the contrary, this is a reflection of my highschool life and my future.

Well after reflecting on my reasons for my future, there is another part of business I need to take care of.  As afformentioned, I have met many amazing people over the years, whether it be through my classes, extracurricular activities, or social events.  I hope I have made a memorable impact on your lives whether you sat on the other side of class and listened to my nonsensical jabbering, or actually sat by me and had some meaningful conversations.  I would love to keep in touch with everyone, because as I am freezing my ass off in Massachusetts, I would love to know that I have a bunchof people who care about me.  If you choose to keep in touch with me, you will be part of the security blanket of people I have in Florida.  Because while I am in Massachusetts, I would love to know that I still have people in my hometown who still care about me, and have not forgotten me.  I will visit, I promise, but I would love to talk to everyone on those late nights in my dorm, in between studying for a hydraulics lab, and an thermodynamics exam.  Just do me a favor and please keep in touch, because I Adam Hirsch, remember and will miss you all.
