Junior year. Everyone says that this critical year in life is complete and utter hell. Leading to this point I was doubtful. I knew they just had to be exaggerating…right?
WRONG!
Well, kinda. This year has been a rollercoaster ride for sure. Sleepless nights of key terms, unimaginable headaches trying to understand what exactly it was we learned in AP chemistry that day, lots ( and lots, and lots…) of homework, projects and readings and lab reports and practicing and rehearsal. It was a cumbersome year.
But it was also much more than that.
Junior year also brought some amazing moments. Placing first place in our division at a national marching band competition, feeling the satisfaction of finishing all of those burdensome assignments, making some unforgettable memories with friends, getting to play lead trumpet in the all-state jazz band. These were also parts of my junior year. It was unforgettable.
Filled with good and bad, this year was packed so dense that it’s hard to fathom everything the last year has brought. It’s been good, it’s been bad, it’s been ugly, but it’s certainly been long, and I can say with confidence that I’ll never forget it and I will certainly not dread the memory of it, but I am glad to see junior year go.
I look forward to attending the Governor’s School for the Arts this summer studying trumpet, as well as to (hopefully) having a senior year as eventful as this one, but perhaps without all the stress. Pinpointing where I want to go to college will be an adventure, as will the rest of life, but I look forward to it all.
