It’s all over now.
Thursrday was a big day for me. I honestly didn’t think I would feel so emotional but by the end of the day everything hit me so hard. Yesterday was my last official day as a Senior at my high school and the entire day I felt fine. Yeah I was a little sad that I wouldn’t see my friend’s faces every day anymore, but I knew I would still see them over the Summer. I was happy and spending as much time with my three favorite guys and my favorite two girls. We basically skipped all of our classes and spent as much time together as we could right until the day was over.
In the back of my mind I couldn’t help but think that this would be the last time we would all be gathered in school together and just being friends. It was getting to me and every time I would leave one of my friend’s side even for a moment I would give them a hug and a kiss on the cheek. I didn’t want to let go of them. I still don’t want to let go of the idea that we have become so close in such little time.
My senior class left the school with a big bang. The last minute of school, all the seniors gathered in the entrance foyer of the school and we all did a huge countdown for the bell. Everyone was screaming “seniors 1-2” at the end of the countdown and there were girls crying all over the place. It all got super emotional but I still wasn’t crying. I thought it was sad, but I guess it didn’t hit me at the moment that this was the end of the road for us. That was until I went to say goodbye to two of my guy friends. They were both feeling the emotion and one of them was getting teary eyed. When I saw the tears in his eyes, it broke my heart because he was the last person I would have expected to be crying. He made my eyes water and we said our final goodbyes. I was holding back the tears as I was leaving to go home but they came streaming down when I said goodbye to the one guy who I’ve grown to tolerate and love so much. Seeing him for the last time and promising each other we’ll hang out with hugs and kisses pushed me off the edge. I told myself I wouldn’t cry and before I knew it, I was sobbing trying to repress all my tears!
I went home crying and all I could do was sit on my bed and think about all the memories and friends I made in High school. I couldn’t help but think about how my first three years of High School were full of drama. They were long and tedious. I didn’t have as much fun as I should have my freshmen through sophomore years but they weren’t terrible. I thought of all the fun I had with the friends I had and all the stupid things we did together. I also thought of all the friends that came and left. All the people I learned to not trust and all the people I stopped being friends with. It took me a whole three years but I finally found the friends who matter and the worst part is that after one year, we’re all leaving each other.
My senior year, I had gone to school starting off fresh with only a few friends who proved themselves true to me. But I quickly became friends with a group of guys who honestly made my senior year the best year ever. I don’t ever want to stop being friends with them <3 I’m going to try my best to make sure we stay strong.
