Senior Year, Baby!

I met a whirlwind of emotions on the first day of school this year.  Of course there were the usual feelings of excitement to see all my friends, especially since we finally earned the title of seniors, but also sadness to see another summer pass knowing that all my leisure time would quickly vanish in the chaos of balancing school, extracurricular activities, and friends.  But perhaps the most unexpected emotion was the sudden realization that it was my last first day of high school at BETA.

As I walked through the hallways waving at familiar faces and occasionally stopping for a quick chat, I realized how much BETA was like a family.  I've attended this school since 8th grade and appreciate how much it has prepared me for college and my future career.  Over the years, teachers have made bonds that make coming here truly special.  It's nice to have instructors that care for their students as much as ours do.  They're always available for tutoring and usually very understanding if something unexpected ever pops up.  As for my fellow peers, I feel incredibly lucky to get the chance to get to know each one--be it through trying to survive  hardcore courses like Pre-Calculus, having fun in clubs, or hanging out on the weekends.  I could've never made it these past years without Trina (especially last year in physics!) and Juliana being there for me at school.  I'm looking forward to making this the best year yet with all my friends. Let's hear it for the class of 2011!  Woot, woot!
