Today is the day I graduate and I feel I need to post a blog. The truth behind the lack of posts lately is the lack of things that I have done. I have been moderately busy, what with my one exam and working maybe two hours a week, and the two awards banquets I've gone to, but there was always time to blog and nothing to blog about.
If someone asked me if I made an impact on Duchesne, I would have to give you a big "no". I didn't wow the school with great performances on stage or on a field, and I didn't get great honors with my academics. When I did work on the plays it was always behind stage, and I guess that's the kind of person I've always been. I can take direction and help things get accomplished.
If someone asked me if I made an impact on the students, I'd say yes. I've never been a very outgoing person and most people wouldn't be able to tell you what my favorite TV show is, but if you asked them if I was nice, I think all of them would say yes. I've made it a point to be kind to everyone, and if someone asked me for help, I would try my best to help them. I didn't get into any fights or have any detentions, but I guess that's because I always took the safe route. I didn't make waves or reach out because I was always afraid of the repercussions.
But tonight when I graduate I know things will change, if not immediately, then gradually. After the graduation is over all the seniors are going to a lock-in until five tomorrow morning, and I plan on having a blast and being myself, not the quiet girl most of them know me as.
Tomorrow I'll tell you all about it, when I wake up.
