March Madness

       These past couple weeks I've been fairly sick with a very contagious disease by the name of "Senior-itis." My motivation for school work has diminished and I find myself spending my time thinking about college and the end of my high school career versus the fact that I have a Government essay due tomorrow. However, today I realized something: it's March. In my previous years of high school, I had always dreaded March because it was a straight month of school, and the weather was always so dreary (it's a blizzard outside right now).
       But today, a different feeling came over me when I realized it was the worst month of the year: sadness. Not the sadness as in "oh great, I have an entire month without any breaks ahead of me" but rather "I only have three months of high school left." High school is almost over, and although I do have the symptoms of Senior-itis, I can't help but feel nostalgic for the four years of my life I spent here.
       Even though I'm excited beyond belief for college, I will miss the teachers and friends I've made, along with the Pumpkin Roll, the dances, Blossom, football games, and many other events that define Chagrin Falls High School. I am very excited to start this new chapter in my life, but I'm happy to say that I will miss you, CFHS!
