Senior farewellBy Yasemin S.
Published June 2019
As a senior about to graduate, I realized how quickly high
school passed. There are times when I felt that it would never end. But now
reflecting on my high school years, I realize that I have gained many valuable
experiences and memories that I will always remember.
The friendships that I have gained were what made these
experiences better. The laughter-filled moments will always ring in my ears.
There were, of course, as many bad moments as there were good ones. There were
moments where I was too stressed and moments when I wanted to give up.
Regardless, these emotions I faced have made me a stronger
and more knowledgeable person. I now know how to face certain problems and
control my emotions.
As I finish this chapter of my life and begin a new one, I
will take with me the experiences I have gained. The Courant has taught me one thing in particular: to express my
ideas to others. I know this skill will be extremely helpful to me as I begin
my new chapter in college. Being able to talk to people and communicate my
ideas will enable me to make new friendships.
The friends and experiences I have acquired in high school will remain in my memories forever.n
