This is to be expected of course, but it's hard to believe that any year after it will be as crazy. In 2008 I completed IB, graduated high school, and started college. In between it all I met so many amazing people and had to say goodbye (and later, "Hello again!") to people that have had my back for my entire life.
I captained a team, voted in an election, supported a candidate, got soaked at an outdoor concert, danced at prom, relaxed with friends, wrote essays, wrote applications, stalked the mailbox, made a decision, GRADUATED, coached a team, went to Otis, said goodbye, arrived at Ithaca College, and found another awesome home.
So 2008 turned out to be pretty awesome.
The events in 2009 aren't as likely to inspire greeting cards and ever-commercialized congratulations for completion of cultural rites-of-passage like those in 2008, but here I go!
Also, can you believe that this is my 90th post?
I certainly can't.
