These last four years have been interesting to say the least when it comes to schooling. There have been a lot of awesome moments that will stick with me for the rest of my life, but there are also moments that I wish I could forget and let go of but have become a part of me. I have dealt with a lot of change and it is something that I have grown accustomed to in my everyday life. Never get complacent with where you are.
The one thing that has stayed the same in my life is school. Every Monday through Friday I wake up at either six or six thirty, depending on whichever parent’s house I am at. I shower and wake my little brother up and tell him its time to go. Sometimes we stop for breakfast, but most of the time we just head right to school. It doesn’t matter what time I get to school at the one thing I have learned is that its the same when I walk in.
Over the years I’ve made a lot of friends. I have watched some graduate, some who are still a few years away from walking on that stage, and most who will be walking across that stage with me and getting flicked up with me in the softball field after graduation. Thank you, Timberlane. You don’t know it, but you helped my life a lot. Just being that one constant thing in my life that I could set a routine for. Thank you, to all the people that helped with keeping it the same everyday for four years. Thank you for being that safe space where I could see my friends but at the same time focus on my education.
For the last three months I have had major senioritis and to all the teachers who say it isn’t a real thing, I think you are forgetting when you were a senior in high school a century ago. Looking past the senioritis, It is scary to think of leaving the only thing that has given my life balance for four years. Having to start a new routine in college with new people who don’t even know I exist yet. I am going to miss this place more then I could ever imagine. This is the place I learned who I am and for that and everything else I am forever grateful. Thank you Timberlane for everything that you have done.
