As I move forward with my life, old patterns are erased and new ones form. I leave the comfort of being a great student behind and wonder who I am without high school and the friends who surrounded me while I was there. I’m not worried that I won’t know who I am; I’m excited to find out. Although it may be lonely and somewhat unnerving, stepping out on my own excites me. I look forward to the places I will see and the people that I will meet. The world is at my feet and the decisions are mine to make.
