Reflection

Looking back at my past two years in IB includes some painful assignments, and great memories. I think we forget when we are working day by day to get everything done how much time is passing us by. I know it is cliche and expected but holy cow these two years flew by. However, in this short amount of time I am proud of what I have done and where I am now. I feel that high school has been a time of incredible growth for each one of us, and IB has changed me more than I care to admit. I think The Stranger, although I was not fond on the book, carries some valuable lessons about going through our lives and achieving our goals. The quote you provided was, "If something is going to happen to me, I want to be there." I love the idea of appreciating what we have in this moment and stopping to appreciate where we are right now. I am worried that people get too caught up on the future and stop enjoying the time we have now. So, I guess I am trying to reflect on the past few years without sadness but with enthusiasm. I like the idea of a new chapter happening next year and honestly getting out of high school. Thanks for the friendships and lessons along the way.
