Time to update, yes i think so~ let's go...
Graduation: In my opinion, this event truely was exciting as well as kind of sad. Think about it, after all the diplomas have been issued and the hats are tossed into the air, what is left of your high school senior year? nothing, you are finished, and now ready to expand your mind as well as your life out into the unknown that will be your future. Is it ok to be alittle scared? Because personally I am, I mean what is going to happen, who will I become? It probably seemed that I was ready for this change but having my path laid out for me over the past 13 years of public education, this challenge of deciding what I will eventually do with my life is not a task I want to tackle right now. I frequently ask myself this question as to whether I am the only one who is lost. I used to think that I was never going to be that person that actors portray on the WB as "undecided", but hey hey, that's me! I need something to slap me in the face and make me realize a certain career that will allow me to put my special talents to use.
The time is now, a time to be revived, a time to repair torn hearts, a time to rethink all that is yet to be decided. Before each and everyone of us Graduated 2006 Seniors moves on to the lives we have waiting for us, do something that you have been wanting to do, say something that you have never been able to say, or just forgive somebody that you thought you would never forgive. People make mistakes in their lives, we are human after all. Don't walk away and leave your fears, tears, and issues for the past to deal with. Handle all your sitiuations in the here and now, while you still have the option. Remember the fun times, memories then will truely be worth more to you then any expensive item. Learn from the hard times, grow from them and allow yourself to except that everything does not come easy. Most of all love like you have never loved before, always allow yourself to fall for someone who is truely worth the time. But remember, to never allow that person to harm you emotionally or physically because how can that be love when you are being hurt? Be strong, stand up for yourself, sure you might have to kick some ass once and a while to get what you truely believe in, but you can do it, I have faith in you.
As we go in different directions, it's time to say goodbye to the ones we must, but say hello to the new ones yet to arrive. Some will return to you in ways you have never expected, changed for the better or for the worst. But welcome them with open arms in either case, because you never know what could come from your generosity.
Finally stay true to who you are...know who you want to become yet keep the kid you once were close to your heart.
Congrats Class of 2006! We did it!
