For us Seniors it’s the last Thursday At Medaille

I sit here and reflect on my past 4 years…..wow what a wild ride. The countless classes, tests, exams, assignments, stacks of books read, relationships formed, and all the knowledge ( same used more than others). I still don’t think that it’s hit me yet that graduation is right around the corner. I know it will be an emotional time for me because I’m the last of 4 children to graduate from college ( my parents also did a little dance when they signed the last tuition check). For those of you that will be there…my family will be the loudest people in the whole place when I walk across that stage.

I sit and wonder though if I’m really ready for the next step. For some of us it will be entering the work force & for some it will be to continue our education in grad school. While the progression in imminent, who is ever really ready for all that life has to throw at us? Some of us will undoubtedly cling to our youth as long as we can and for others we will just be launched into full fledged adulthood and all that it comes with.

I say to all of us….SEIZE THE DAY!!! These are the best years of our lives (high school smich school). Let’s live it up!!! Embrace what we have today and live for what tomorrow may bring to us. Don’t be scared of the unknown……take on the challenges and show the world what you’re made of. Don’t be afraid to fail some times, in life it’s inevitable, but pick your self up, brush it off, and keep charging up the mountain of life….It’s an adventure. And if you ever remember one thing…..don’t sweat the small things in life cause no one ever gets out alive!!!
