Bitter Sweet Memories
Senior year is full of bitter sweet memories; one being your very last prom. I have gone to my fair share of dances and my last prom coming up quick is exciting yet sad. I remember my first prom like it was yesterday, and how I just brushed it off because three more years were ahead of me to relive it. Little did I know, that last dance would be in a blink of an eye, and I blinked.
Prom is the last big thing you will remember from high school besides graduation, it is one of the last times you will be considered a senior at JM and that is crazy to think about. The memories made at dances will last forever. Like the time my dress was breaking because the thought of trying it on a second time to see if it still fit never crossed my mind, or the time Zach and I almost fell down the stairs at Grand March and he had to basically carry me down them.
Pretty soon, some of the memories will fade and we will reminisce on the little moments that meant the world to us. Graduation will be a time that we will always remember together since it will be the last time every senior will be together, and for me, gives mixed emotions. The question is always asked, “are you excited to graduate?” Yes, I am excited to graduate, but that does not mean that I am going to be excited about never picking on Huba during the day, or making Janessa throw frisbee with me only because I know she hates it. The feeling of being on top of the world is coming to a screeching halt, but I know that there are bigger and better things in my future, and that is what I am looking forward too.
The memories of prom and graduation are upon us, and as we wrap up senior year all of us will be remember all the little details of the last 13 years and spending time appreciating our last moments as seniors at Jefferson-Morgan.
