Seniorness

This past week has been filled with some pretty big milestones for me, and to say I'm conflicted on how to feel about it would be an understatement. Our first quarter of the year is done, I gave my senior speech, and cheered my last game at norfolk academy, all in a period of 5 days. The emotions are almost unbearable. 

My speech was surprisingly a blast to give, despite the fact that I made eye contact with my ex in the front row. I felt confident in what I wrote and feel like I spoke clearly and well, without feeling like I was attacking anyone. I had a surprise visit that day by my grandmother and her sister to watch my speech, which was a little nerve wracking but my speech advisor told me that there is no one who supports you more than a grandparent, which is definitely true. My brother also made a rare appearance on our campus that morning!

Two days later was our senior day for cheerleading. Our underclassmen made us the Fanta Girls because we're their "FANTAstic seniors!" (SO CUTE) Really there is a fourth senior but she's been sick for the past few days so unfortunately wasn't there to join us.

Cheering our last home game was a surreal experience for me, and I can't believe that I only have one game left wearing my orange and blue uniform. I've been a cheerleader at my school for five amazing years, and am definitely having a hard time accepting the fact that it's almost over.

There may or may not have been tears shed as I left the field...
