A Letter To High School Seniors On Graduation Day The rest of your life begins today. Dear High School Senior, Today’s the day you’ve been waiting for your whole life. You’ll wake up a little earlier than usual, brush your teeth and go downstairs for your last breakfast as a high school student. Your mom will look at you with tears running down her cheeks wondering how her baby grew up so quickly. Your friends will be texting your group message non-stop with words of disbelief, wondering where the time went. You guys made it to the day you’ve been counting down to all year long. You’ll start to reminisce on things like your first pep rally and the dorky outfits you wore freshman year. You’ll laugh at things your old teachers did and remember the ones who left to teach somewhere else. You’ll wonder how the guys in your grade actually managed to grow up and laugh at how young you all looked when you had just begun. You’ll remember all of the football games you attended and consider how strange it will be seeing other people wearing your guy friends’ numbers when the Thanksgiving game rolls around. You’ll drive by the soccer field and think of all the blood, sweat and tears you gave to it over your high school career. You’ll recall your first real kiss and joke about how
46
upset you were when the first boy broke your heart. It’ll feel like yesterday when you walk through those doors for the final time and look around at all of the empty lockers. You’ll gather with your classmates together in the same place for the last time and think about how you’re all going to be in different places next year. You’ll be excited but nervous because in a few hours, life as you know it will change. So before you sit down to hear the Valedictorian’s speech and walk the stage to receive your diploma, make sure you take the time to appreciate the memories you made in those halls. Thank your teachers, even the difficult ones, because when you’re sitting down in your first college class, you’ll feel grateful for the work they made you do. Thank your parents for supporting you. It’s not easy raising a teenager, but they did not give up on you regardless of how brutal puberty was. Thank your friends. They’re the ones that got you through your first heartbreak and made sure that you were going to be okay. They listened to your complaints after a big fight with your mom, even if they thought you were wrong. They forgave you when you were wrong and understood your bad days. They stood up for you when you got yourself in a bad situation. They brought
you coffee when you didn’t have time to get it yourself. They took you home when you couldn’t make it there alone. They celebrated your good news and helped you through the bad. They made you laugh uncontrollably and created memories that you’ll hold on to forever. They made you who you are today. After you receive your diploma and throw your cap in the air, make the most of the time you have left with your high school friends before you all head off to college. You only have a few months before you’re sitting in a dorm room surrounded by unfamiliar faces. Work, but don’t forget that memories last longer than money. Go to the beach, take lots of pictures, go out on Friday nights and enjoy the days that summer has to give. Trust me, college will be awesome, but you’ll never be the same person that you are today. Sincerely, Your College Self
