The Unexpected Ride

We all know that roller coasters have so many twists, turns, and loopty loops. We do not know what is coming up next at such high speeds. Honestly that's how high school is. I expected high school to be a certain way but honestly now looking back I was all wrong. Now that high school is quickly coming to a close I realized the turns and ups and downs made me who I am. Freshman year was just here like it was yesterday. I was scared for my life. Started with a certain group of friends and did not know what to do. I thought this was going to be the hardest moment of my life. But now senior year is here. I do not have the same friends I did three years ago and I am happy where I am. I realized I was stressing myself out to a new level. I am trying to grasp every moment in high school. Graduation is quickly approaching and before we all know it, we will be on our own. I know I will look back at high school and see the obstacles I had to face and how I over come them. It made me the strong person I am.
Writing this Commencement Speech will help me get my ideas of high school and life in my own words. I will be able to address my senior class on my experiences. On graduation day we will celebrate that days we left behind and move on to the adult life. As life continues on we will be able to give the little advice we have in this speech. I want to express to my class that we must live life to the fullest. We only have one life and there are no re dos.
Now that a deadline lies ahead, we need to figure out what we want in life. I know I have a plan but not everyone does. High school has started us out on the right track but now it is our turn to take the next step and grab what life throws at us.
