I can’t believe our four-year long journey is so near it’s end! The end of high school only means the beginning of the rest of our lives, though. These past four years had its ups and downs and definitely taught us all great messages for us to look back on later in life. Some memorable moments shallowly include: the first homecoming game I went to, being a part of a school committee, joining my first few clubs, being a part of a school team, participating in Black and Gold week, watching the school play, attending junior prom, founding my own club, writing for the Pinion, senior luau, and of course much more. Of course there were negative moments which do not want to be remembered, but those downer moments cannot define my life. The thing we can take from them is experience. We learn to take the best of the situation, no matter good or bad, and apply to our lives (such as not making the same mistake again). High school is just another step towards college. Also, these four years would not be anything without the people to share it with, back from freshman year and now to our final senior days. It will be weird and sad not seeing everyone as often after this upcoming summer… but even if the physical connection is lost, the memories will be intact forever. That is what social media and the yearbook is for, right? Anyways, good luck to everyone on their future endeavors!

Congratulations to the class of 2013! We did it!
