Senior year ...

Senior year is unlike any other ...

It won't hit you when you wake up for your last first day of school.

It won't hit you as you enter the floor to perform at your class assembly for the last time.

It won't hit you as you fill out the countless college applications.

It won't hit you as you celebrate the last New Year's with the friends you have known since childhood.

It won't hit you on Scribble day, when everyone, no matter what group you are in, has a picnic.

When December finally comes around, you realize that it is your last day as a school student, but you don't really feel it when you are there having the time of your life.

It won't hit you until that moment when you're cheering at your farewell and later, crying your eyes out when its time to leave!

You begin to understand it when you look around and realize that you will never see half of these people again.

You begin to see it more over the summer when everyone is getting their roommates, class schedules, and going to orientation.

And when you are sitting in your room packing up the past 18 years of your life, laughing with your best friend about all the stupid stuff you've done ..

And although you're now walking down a different path of life, always keep the road map of memories of where you've been ..
