The end of the year award.
Basically I thought I was gonna be there just to goof-off and celebrate our team's 7th year consecutive championship.
Well, I expected way too little out of tonight.
I didn't realize this was my last, meaning no more, time to celebrate high school career.
I know. I have so much stuff waiting for me to challenge, encourage, and disappoint me.
It's just so ridiculous how many things I have taken for granted and forgot about.
I got a few awards, but it's not what I am talking about.
It's just amazing to see all the appreciation created from this small conservative high school.
In this small high school community, I have met love, inspiration, and a hero or heroes perhaps.
I still don't understand my friends and parents giving me compliments while I have so much to give back to them.
Just with in these barely 3 years, I have earned so much. I have learned so much. And I have changed so much. Sometimes, no, often times I question myself whether I do deserve this or not. I don't care about trophies or letters, but I do care about the process of how this moment of celebration became possible. And I am just solely proud of everybody, and I want to keep giving thanks to them.
I found an ability. I found what I have. But I still don't know how to use them wise enough.
People may not know how much they have shaped me into who I am now.
And it's just so great. Thank you, thank you, and thank you all...
Among these groups of people who deserve thanks and blessings, there is this one guy who used to run really fast while he was around that nobody could catch up with. I don't see him anymore until I finish my race, look up to the sky, and give thanks to him. And he again helped me. Again and again, he is just so constant. And tonight his name finally and officially became equivalent to what it means to be inspirational. I was so happy. I was so happy for those who got the honor of being named after his name. I am so happy that now everybody notices his name, that his ubiqutuous presence will be known to more people! He is one who might have been handicapped but yet the one who could keep others from being spiritually handicapped.
I like this guy a lot. I want to achieve what this man has achieved.
Along with God, this guy is somehow there to help others.
That's what I want to do in the future.
