Ahhh the immaturity, the hubris, the rashness. The invincibility of the teenage boy and the awkward beauty of the teenage girl. High school has all of these charms and more. I'm getting graduation goggles, but I think I might miss the dirty cafeteria tables and the whispers spoken just above them. Nostalgia overwhelmed me as our senior class proved to be both inconsiderate and daring in a way that proved nothing besides the fact that we are but mischievous children. I won't rant about how dangerous and unthoughtful of an act it was, but the lack of injuries does comfort me immensely. It also gave me a chance to love this school once last time before I go. In all its ruddiness, Herndon was rather lovely.
The beauty of high school:
-Homecomings
-hometown heroes
-self-discovery
-young love
-friendships
-school spirit
-hormones
-chaos
-learning
-taking chances
-growing up
-being young
-dreams
I can think of no other way to describe high school besides both stupid and glorious.
