An Ode to High School
As the end of high school creeps up, I would like to take a moment to acknowledge the highlights of these four years that I have repeatedly claimed to hate, but am forever indebted to. First and foremost, I would like to extend my deepest gratitude to my friends. I came into high school with a group of friends, made some and lost some along the way, but I’m leaving high school with many of the same friends that I plan to keep close for a lifetime. Thank you for making sure that I will never be alone. Thank you for always being there whenever I need it. Thank you for always finding a way to make me smile. Thank you for the endless support in everything that I do. Thank you for pushing me to be my best and forgiving me when I’m not. Next, I would like to say thank you to The Stranger and Albert Camus. Thank you for introducing me to the concept of existentialism and allowing me to explore the purpose of my life. Thank you for showing me that we create purpose in our own lives...
