The opening scene of HSM3 (such a fantastic movie btw 10/10) includes a song centered around the number "16" which I think is super fitting because 16 just so happens to be my graduating year!! S/o to the writers for sticking that nugget in there for us HSM kids. Lyrics include phrases such as "this is the last chance to get it right" "this is the last chance to make our mark" and so on and so on. Which is so perfect for those of us getting ready to graduate in just 9 short months. This movie is all about finding yourself, leaving your mark, and making awesome memories with your friends-- exactly what I plan on doing this year. I'm determined to make this the best year yet.
After bawling my eyes out watching HSM, I decided to make myself cry a little more by rewatching the last ever episode of One Tree Hill, aka the best TV show and finale like ever. I'm sure many of you are familiar with this amazingly real and accurate quote from none-other than the beautiful and talented Nathan Scott.
"It's the oldest story in the world. One day you're 17 and planning for someday. And then quietly, without you ever really noticing, someday is today. And that someday is yesterday. And this is your life."
Wow. Right in the feels, huh? I'm 17. I'm planning for someday. Yikes. I can't let my "someday" sneak up on me. I'm going to take my final year of high school and enjoy every single second of it without letting it slip away.
So, Senior Year, I'm ready for you. I'm ready to take everything you have for me and live and love every second of it. Here we go...
xoxo,
Rachel
