I hope to be remembered as a safe space for not only questions when you were confused but also when you needed advice or someone to talk to. To be remembered as a beacon of positivity and consistency when things felt like they were falling apart. I would rather my kindness stay behind rather than my name.

Life can be incredibly kind to the people around you, but it can also be cruel by taking opportunities away. But in response, I can bounce back with the help of my friends and my own positivity.

I’ll miss the feeling of knowing what will happen next, that there won’t be any curveballs. I’m the kind of person that likes the comfort of routine, so the idea of going to a completely new school is, while exciting, also scary.

But I’m up for the challenge.
