So it's my senior year, just a few more months of living with the parents and coming to high school. I'm not as excited as I thought I would be, I'm actually kinda sad. It has recently occured to me that with graduating I leave more behind than I realized I would. I won't graduate with all the people I went to kindergarten with or the people I built relationships with over the years. I made the choice to graduate early and as happy as I am, I don't want to have to leave most of my friends here when I go. Yes, I have friends that will graduate with me but it's still a weird thing. I went to kindergaten with the people I'm leaving behind. Not only am I leaving my friends but I'm taking a year away from the time my parents have with me. It's just been the three of us for so long and I know it will be hard for them to have an empty house next August when i'm off to college. There are so many good things about doing what i'm doing but at the end of the day I will miss my friends and my parents when I'm gone.
Friends who read this.... don't tell me to just stay because that only makes me feel bad when I shouldn't. I have to move forward with my life in the best way possible. Even if it mean leaving you here with teachers that annoy you and children you want to kick. I have thought about how we would be if I stayed and we graduated together, and I have come to the conclusio that regardless of how soon I leave.... we will all fall apart and go our own way in the end.
My last home volleyball game is this Friday. I sat in one of the many doctors offices that I have been to in the last two weeks, and I thought about how weird it will be knowing that it's really the last time I will set foot on that court to play a high school volleyball game. Seniors that is something to think about when you play your last volleyball game, your last basketball game, or the last time you walk down the hallway as a high school student. As little as those things are, you don't know what you got 'til it's gone!

i liked this one. I had the same thing going on when it was my eighth grade year and i had to move to arizona. my friends still talk to me sometimes though. I think that you are making the right choice because you are choosing to be responsible and move on with your life.
This makes total sense, Chantel. You're right though. You need to move on and do what's best for your future. Your parents and true friendswill always be a part of your life--even if they have to drive a little bit to visit you!
I think its great that you are going on with your life even if it means you have to leave behind alot of memories youll still make new one i wish you luck on your new life.
