Transcended

” Started from the bottom now we’re here”– Drake

This year is a special year. I can’t believe that I would make it here this fast. ICS has been home for me for 14 years already. I couldn’t make here without my friends that stayed by my side for more than a decade. 2 years ago I looked up to my sister when she was getting her diploma. “Wow!” I said to myself as she walk passed with lights shining on to her as if she was walking to heaven. I have made it to this situation and it’s a big milestone for my life.

In my last year at ICS, I’m excited for everything. The Carnival where all the seniors will bond and work hard for. The senior trip where we will shed our tears and step out of our comfort zone. And my last basketball trip where I hope to make the best out of it. Well these are the things that I mostly excited about but it’s also sad because it’ll be the last.

Even though this is my last year, I still have some goals that I haven’t accomplish yet in my 14 years in ICS. The first goal that I hope to accomplish is to win more games in my last basketball season. This goal is almost for everyone on the team but this goal is more special to me because its my last year. The other goal that I want to accomplish is to talk to every senior. I basically know everyone because of my 14 years here so I hope that I can catch up with everyone before we don’t see each other again. Friends have been a huge factor of why I love ICS. My friends always say that I can go along with almost every Senior, and I agree. I want to cherish and spend memories with every senior until our time here ends.

Everyone wants to defined there senior year as a happy ending to their high school years. But I want to define my senior year as a last chance. A last chance to accomplish what you want before it end. And a last chance to bond before we take our separate paths. In my 14 years here I did everything that I can possibly do. But there are some risk that I haven’t taken yet so I want to do it.

It’s our last chance before we transcend to another level and take different paths for the first time in our lives.
