the end of another chapter.

the past four years of my life have been spent in a place where everyone wanted so badly to get out of. now, i can't help but long to go back. so many memories, so many people to remember for the rest of my life. i don't want to leave them behind when i head out to Boston, but it's necessary that i move on. that we move on. i thank God for the times spent with those kids, practicing for pacn, hanging out at lunch, or a simple hello at grad night. i'll never forget them, and i'm grateful to say that they've changed my life. i'm changed, and changed for the better because of them. i've learned to dream big even if life tells me i can't. we all may not have ended up where we wanted to for the next four years, but surely we don't regret the journey we've taken to get there. we may not be with who we want, but it only makes this new chapter even more mysterious and interesting. sure, we have our regrets: the things we didn't do during high school or becoming closer to people we wished we could've hung out with more. but we're not officially finished. we're the blank space between two chapters, and the second chapter hasn't begun. there's room to write more memories even if they're late in the game. i certainly will try my best to fill up that space.

i love you, Troy High School Class of 2009.

can't wait to see you someday, my dear, dear friends.
