Tomorrow marks the start of the 4th nine weeks of my senior year. There is only 1 nine weeks left, and I honestly can not believe it. This year has not slown down at all, and nothing is going to. It seems like just a month ago, I was strapping on football cleats, and going out for my last two-a-day practices. My first Young Life as a senior. It all has come and go so fast. I am in shock.
The beginning of this year, I wanted to do something crazy. I wanted to be a different senior. If I'm honest, I've not been doing my job very well. I've watched a few of my freshman friends make some stupid mistakes, which I could have helped them not to make. I've seen myself start to stop caring completely. I've watched my life start to roller coaster.
On the flip side, I also wanted to become a better leader, and learn more. I know that I have grown as a leader, and even though I no longer lead Wyldlife, I have grown since I have had to stop, and I want to keep growing. I can't wait to go to Liberty University next fall,and start to train as a Young Life leader. I can't wait to see what is in store for me. I can't believe high school is almost over, but at the same time, I can't even describe how excited I am for college.
I can't believe it's almost over. The thought crosses my mind in basically every conversation I have. It's such a bittersweet moment. Knowing that I have all these friends I am possibly never going to see again, the fact that after this year, my life will definitely never be the same. I will not face a more important time in my life, maybe until I get married, or have a kid or something.
This crazy road has helped me, hurt me, broken me, fixed me, and everything in between. I can't believe it's close to over, and I almost don't want it to be over. I just know that I have to go with what I'm given. I'm thankful that I have been through it, but it's still going to be the saddest day in the world when it hits me that I am no longer in high school anymore. I hate the simple fact that I will possibly not see some of my best friends again after this year! That's Crazy!
To all my senior friends, lets end off high school with a bang! Lets change the school dramatically, and leave our legacy behind. I have loved spending the last 4 years with all of you at Cave Spring. I may not like all of the seniors at CS, but they all have affected me in some way. I'm truly going to miss y'all when it's all said and done.
Here's to the last nine weeks of high school!

Happy St Patrick's Day everyone.
