Everything Happens For A Reason

If something is going to change your life let. It might be the best decision you could make. Live everyday as your last day. You never know what is going to happen that day. So avoid the people that bring you down. Surround yourself with only the people who make you smile and laugh and make you happy. Follow your heart. A lot of the times when people come into your life you know they are there to serve a purpose or help you out or even figure out who you are or who you may become. Everyone experiences pain, loneliness, and fear. At that time it may seem horrible and a really tough time to go through, but when you look back on it all you will understand that going through that gave you the strength, heart, and mind set to overcome anything else that comes your way.

            When we look back 20 years from now most people will remember the big things like being on a varsity sport, being part of the so called popular click, even the times they thought they were in love when they were 15. When I look back I think of all the little things that created the big things. I will always remember the nights I spent crying I was laughing so hard with my best friends, which are pretty much family, the team bonding and camps and all the inside jokes that will be impossible to forget.  Even though I have taken so many pictures that will never replace having been there at that time. I will still always smile when I think of all the little things.

            Life is too short to regret. Anything that you might want to regret, just think of as a lessoned learned, a new page in your life.  So smile as much as you can, laugh as much as you breath and love as long you live. 

You don't know what you have until its gone.

A lot of people take something’s in life for granted. Something’s people do just carelessly; some people will never have the chance to do. You never know what you have until its gone. My grandma died 2 summers ago.  No one expected it. It just kind of happened. I wish I had the chance to tell her I loved her one last time. This last summer to the month and date from when my grandma was taken from us my grandpa died. Everyone was shocked. It really didn’t hit me right away, because it was impossible for him to be fine one minute, then not the next. I never got the chance to say goodbye or that I love him either. Which I know that they are in a better place, it still hurts that there was so much I wanted to tell them. I wanted them to be at my graduation, I wanted them to see me beat my dig record, I wanted them to see me at my senior prom, I wanted them to see me get married. I don’t think that people realize how lucky they are to have families that love them and care about them. 

Senior Year

Its crazy to think that it is senior year already.  My past three years of high school have gone so fast. Even though in the moment I was dreading coming to school and I thought summer would never come.  Now that graduation is 7 months away, it seems a long time but I know it will fly by. I have made incredible memories throughout the three years and will most definitely be making even more this year.

Everyone always says, “ When I graduate I wont miss anything, I just want to get out of here.”  The smallest things are the things I will miss the most and never forget. I will miss Friday night football, team bonding with all sports especially volleyball. Taking hours and hours to get ready for prom and homecoming to only spend a few hours with my best friends.  All the little moments you shouldn’t take for granted because after you graduate you will go back to your hometown and remember all the great times you had, and wish you could have it all back.

 Another thing that I will miss and never forget are my friends. I have made some incredible friends. Granted I have lost some friends too, but that’s all part of the high school experience. My friends are the ones that made my year, and worth coming to school everyday. Sometimes i look back and wish i could of done things differently especially gone after friends i shouldn't have let go. 

One thing i wont regret when i graduate is not having fun my senior year. I will do things i don't normally do, hangout with people that i don't usually hangout with. My year is just starting but i'm hoping it will be the year i remember 20 years from now.
