Today was my last day of High School! Next year I'm going to be at college study Neurobiology and Physiology!!! I AM SO EXCITED, but also a bit scared of leaving home. I got a letter in the mail from an 8th grade me. I think younger me would be really proud, I graduated with a ton of awards and got to wear a ton of stuff with my cap and gown. But the best part was visiting my old elementary and middle school, I feel like the high schoolers became their younger selves for a few hours. The elementary schoolers kept wanting to give me high fives and the middle schoolers kept asking how I got so many things and what each were for. Seeing my older teachers was really fun too I got to take a ton of photos with them and my friends. I'm going to miss the younger kids that I'm friends with so much. This year I really wanted to make the younger kids in my Science Olympiad group feel seen and I think I did my best to make that happen, some even called me their favorite senior, something I always dreamed of. But I am so proud of me, I've gotten through rejection, failed test after failed test, breakdowns in the bathroom, friend drama and so many family problems but I did it, I did it and still ended up as one of the most decorated kids in my class, while not loosing my geeky or weird side along the way. I wore blue instead of the white the girls usually wear and I decorated my cap, even through I wasn't supposed to, with a phm quote("AMAZE AMAZE AMAZE"). But I proved to myself throughout high school that I am stronger than I think I am and being kind to people and being true to yourself really does pay off. This poor Queer Mexican kid did it and younger me is beaming right now.
