I cant believe tomorrow is my final day in high school. The last day I will walk through that school as a student. I remember at the beginning of the year I thought the end would never come. Now, its just a few hours away and I just have memories flashing by me. Time doesnt slow down but I just wish it could for the last day. I am excited to graduate and be done but I am sad and scared at the same time.
I remember a few years ago the chance of me graduating was nowhere in sight. Now, its right in front of me but I am scared. Fear fills me with mixture of excitement. There is not enough time to thank everyone who got me through the years. But a big thanks has to go to my mom because she understood how hard school was for me but never gave up on me. Thanks mom! Thank you teachers and counselors who stayed patient with me when I was going through rough times. Some may think I could of been more successful and I dont disagree but I am happy with where I am today. I know a lot are disappointed that I am not going to college but I need to take the path thats right for me. Right now college and I would be the worst combo but maybe in the future.
Tomorrow is such a big day. Its a half a day at school but then its graduation night. Graduation is at five and I will be in a white dress and heels. Yes, now thats a rare site to see. Dont worry mom is taking photos. Then all the seniors go out to eat at some fancy place. After that we come back and go to the middle school for a huge party until six in the morning. Doesnt that sound awesome! I am so excited for it. I am going to make the most of it. Create a few more memories before its forever gone.
One journey is coming to a close but another one will start. Another journey is going to take some time to get use to but I will not give up. It may take me longer than most to get on the right path but I will eventually get there. For now, I will enjoy this journey before its just memories in my head and in photos. Class of 2010!
All the best for your graduation celebrations *Enjoy* and as for finding the right path hope you will have the time of your life finding it! (my youngest son is still looking for his path and he is 23)lol
Congratulations Anna – by another photographer and nature-lover!
It’s so great day you’re having – i barely remember mines anymore, but i do remember those same feelings, also kinda emptiness in decisions, like where to go next. Would i follow my parents choice to go to college or my own to go to professional school learning electronics and the first computers / programming. I chose my own (and got some rough time from my parents), but today i’m not regretting a bit. Wouldn’t change a day left behind. I work as a systems analyst / programmer and a free-time photographer at the free time … and i’m happy and content with that all ..
The voice of our own heart is the most important, the dreams we can see so well already in this age are very strong if they are realistic. Some people may not be mature enough to decide at all – to them college may be like three extra needed years more, if they are able to go through.
Sometimes we jump over void like a bird from a nest to try our wings, even if we wouldn’t be so sure, but in most cases it’s all worth of it. When being young, there’s time to even fix possible mistakes. The longer we shift things, the harder it comes – so congratulations once more and may God bless you,

Your next journey should be exciting and adventurous try everything you feel you need to.But be wary and careful at the same time.I send my best wishes for your future.xx.
We gain strength, and courage, and confidence by each experience in which we really stop to look fear in the face… we must do that which we think we cannot.
–Eleanor Roosevelt
I’m excited for you! Make the most of the day and remember you don’t have to make any decisions right now about the rest of your life, that’s what the rest of your life is for! You are in your own time, not anyone else’s time. I’ll be waiting for the photos…. ;o)
I hope you have a fantastic day filled with memorable moments!
