One Door Closed, Another Opened

Junior year has been one of the most stressful years of my life- and most of our classmates would agree. This year, we've all been tested in ways we never even imagined. We've grown in an infinite number of ways to get to where we are today (just think about how much our practice test scores have improved). I'm still quite surprised by how much everything has changed- not just in our academic lives, but in our personal lives as well. Some of us have grown apart, some closer together, but it has all been to our benefit. Honestly, over the past few years, I believe I've made some of the best friends I could ever desire. As time has gone on, I've been able to really find things I'm passionate about, and act on those things. Up until this year, I think I had a fear of branching out and taking risks, and I think that was what our junior year was all about- finding what we enjoy (and our talents), no matter the risk. Now that we're going into our final year, it's making us much more appreciative of all our experiences here, and we are so fortunate that those events were made possible. We should try to make our last year here the best year we can.
