One of my finals today was to talk about what you have learned at high school, how you have changed and etc. When I started my presentation I started to talk about the friends I had gained and the ones I lost, how I dealt with certain situations and how over the time period of 4 years, who and what had changed me into what I am today. Nothing too big right? I then began to talk about the teachers at Mt. View who were there for me and influenced me to succeed and do great things. That's when the water works began but not only for me but for the whole class. For some reason, standing there and realizing how much certain teachers have helped me be a better person just shocked me. People like Whitfield, Rich, Greene, Loomis, Low, Kissel and cote...if it wasn't for those teachers I would be such a narrow minded person going nowhere in life. Now though I want to travel the world, I want to help those who need it, I no longer hold grudges, I realized that life is too short to hate people and all of this knowledge was gained by my mentors. Before I left today I stopped by to thank all of those teachers and I even made a few of them cry. It's just sad to know that people who mean the world to me, I may never see again.
Yearbook was also a heart breaker to say goodbye to. We all signed the wall today and had a fiesta which like every other party we have was amazing. When i first entered that class I thought it was going to be complete bullshit but over time we became close, real close. James Taylor is my best friend and every day we would always go out and have an adventure on campus. Kacy brown and Heidi were always there to make fun of for the stupid shit they'd do...yea the list goes on but today when the room fell silent my heart dropped. We are usually the most obnoxious bunch at school but not today.
Before I left Mt. View I did have to do the normal pranks. Actually all year has been pulling pranks on one another and I'll miss that.
I am not saying this is the end and I look forward to the future but damn, all the memories made will never escape me. I'm glad to be done with it but where the hell did time go?
