2011

For all I know, senior year was the best

Definitely most fun compared to the rest

New heights, late nights, 

long talks, romantic walks,

notes on cars, under the stars,

flashing lights, 12 rewrites

weekends seemed to reunite

now we wait for graduation

the center of our anticipation

honestly our time flew by

so this should not just be a goodbye

From August till now, it went too fast

These last senior events will make the memories last

OED, white noise, and garage sales were a blast

SDLC, basketball, and purples day seem far past

Championships, plays, and baseball

We left mark for every class to recall

11 means so much more to me

I cant imagine what this class would be

28.5 minutes brought the glee

Jordan ingrained an instant memory

For days and weeks didn’t seem so long

When he was rapping his FFB song

I hope our class will be lifelong

We are the core- so damn strong 

LAST

Its weird to think the last of everything is happening so quickly. Today I watched Tony and Matt play their last baseball game at home. I already went to the last dance performance. BSC has pretty much already transitioned to next year's exec board. I've already begun working with next year's Diversity club. Today was the last Tuesday of senior classes. Today was my last AP. Today was my last standardized test...until the MCAT. Today was probably the last time Ill wear my Buckley red army shirt. It's weird to think how we have grown to be a family, Buckley our home, our comfort zone, our safe haven. Next year- ambiguity begins. Maybe its good to shock us immediately but I dont think Ill ever have the same connection as a Trojan, like I do a Griffin. Trojans dont get Outdoor Ed, Trojans dont get to walk around campus and say hi to anyone they come in contact with because they know every student/teacher/staff member by name, Trojans wont understand Jan 28, Trojans wont get the jokes about "Buckley fail vs. real Fail", Trojans wont get the familiarity that I've been privileged to be apart of for the past twelve years. Trojans wont ever get the true meaning of the Class of 2011 to me, but I know you will.

Blog #2 Senior Projects

I’m really looking forward to Senior Projects. It’s the perfect time to get some career-based experience in a medical clinic that I hope to some day work at. However, I’ve heard it’s weird when you get to sleep in and not go to school on a Wednesday morning. I'm looking forward to the presentation but wonder who I'll be paired with, but probably Molefi. I’m slightly confused on what were “graded” on and where this grade impacts us, but I’m sure that will all be clarified in the weeks to come. For now, I can wait to wake up and feel like a practicing physician at only 18!
