All summer I was very anxious for law school to start, and for my youth as I knew it to end. I didn't want it to come. I was on edge and slightly upset all summer. I kept thinking of how fast the past years have flown by and how much I miss the simpler days...
1990(When we look back, we are reminded of the people no longer here.)
1991(Yes, I'm calling you!)
1994(Carefree and Fun)
1997(One of the early pics of all the BFFs together!)
2001(BFF Tay's Birthday)
2004(Middle School Graduation Week)
2006(Sophomore Year of High School. Now, Ali on the left is starting her graduate program at Harvard!)
2007(NHS Induction, I had someone take this picture because our skirts went well with the painting.)
2008(The year I won Prom Angel.)
2008(Senior Picture with Raquel)
2010(SisterT and I get a new sister with SisterA. Our first trip together in Chicago.)
2011(One of the best summers I will ever have. July 4th in Michigan.)
2011(The year the workout ladies birthday club began and I made friends I'll have for a lifetime!)
2011(Half Marathon with Sweet Christina.)
2011(Graduating College Early!)
2012(A summer of new friends and bright outfits!)
2012(Our last night out together, before everyone started school again. BFFs 15+ years and going strong!) I look back at these pictures, and wish I had savored every moment more. They are all important to me, especially now.
I just started Law School, the next chapter. I could never have imagined how hard it is, or how much time it takes up. With every page of notes, I think of how we all need to make a name for ourselves.
BFFTay with nursing, SisterT with fashion, and BFFLex with whatever she chooses, I want us all to be proud of the people we become five years from now. To look back and realize that every test and week devoted to our success was worth it, so that one day we can go out and be happy with our lives.
Our Facebook picture postings will decrease and our nights together will be few and far between, but when we are together we will have the best times.
To all of you starting a new chapter, I wish you luck. I remind you to remember the good times to get you through the tough. To look forward to all the great times to come.
To my followers, I promise to be more consistent, even it if means posting once or twice a week, I'll post.
Sending happiness your way! xoxo
