A Final Step and a New Beginning( March 6th, 2013)

Today was a long yet efficient day. We had our junior conference with our guidance counselor, Mrs. Lethbridge and in her words, today was the "official start of college preparation". Hearing that statement was such a bitter sweet feeling. It left me with a mixture of excitement, uncertainty, and the feeling of "here it is". And although my nerves seemed to gang up on me and my mind constantly drifted to the thought of lacrosse, I was later relieved to find I did in fact make the team. After lacrosse came Sportsnite, which never fails to cheer me up and make me feel content, and finally the last class of SAT prep. Jake, our tutor, really inspired us with one final lecture and one last gist of advice, leaving most of us confident for the SAT this upcoming Saturday. And to top it off, Andrew, Toni and I even got a picture with Jake. But although it was the final stretch, I was happy and sad too see the class end (even though the class wasn't always enjoyable). But as for most things in life, it prepared me well for what lies ahead. And life goes on.
