Ah, what a year! Somehow, our junior year is coming to a close. We are feeling the anticipation of summer, yet it seems that just a few days ago we were all talking about how great this year is going to be. And for the most part, we were right.
First, failures. Should I have engaged in more resumé building activities? Yeah, probably. Should I have gone the extra mile to get a 4.0? Once again, yes. But what has happened has happened, and I do not tend to dwell on what I have done wrong...
... and this is because in general, my life and year have presented me with so many more reasons to be happy and feel content with what I have. I have made amazing new friendships, and have grown greatly closer to my fellow Academy people. I have made hysterical and unforgettable memories, and have made connections with people I had previously known nothing about. I have spontaneously dumped a can of white paint on myself at a football game, garnering fame for myself amongst the underclassmen. I have driven around for hours on some nights, doing nothing more than picking up and seeing random peers to talk to. I have gone on unexpectedly hilarious college visits with my good friend. I have gone on an amazing spring break trip to the undeveloped and breathtaking Cumberland Island with close friends. I have had the time of my life at Prom (lol). I think I would consider Junior year a success overall. Now, for icing on the cake, I just have to find a mentoring project...
