School Examination; Creative Writing

Finally my senior year in high school came. I anticipated and awaited this year with so much enthusiasm , that now I realize was me expecting too much out of something. It started off alright, but then the months started rolling by. I was starting to lose my best friends, the connection between us not as strong anymore, we were actually growing apart. I never thought I’d see the day this could happen, and it scared me so much. My friends were my life. I tend not to like being alone, and when I started losing them, I couldn’t let go. I knew I had to let go, but I just couldn’t make myself to do it. I held on so tightly that, eventually it did more damage than good. That was the first of many things to go wrong in my senior year. Then came the breaking of my heart, so deep that it left me feeling empty and hollow for a very long time. I fell too hard and too fast for a guy that didn’t even know I existed. That’s obviously a sign for a future heartbreak, I should have known, but even if I had, nothing could stop how my heart felt like. It skipped a beat every time I saw him in the hall. We had become friends, but to him that was all and more than enough. To me, it was more and it left me heartbroken. Then second semester came by and things started to look up. I wasn’t as dependent on my friends, I knew what was expected out of me from them, and my heart healed in time. Several things changed, and actually felt like a senior year of high school should. I started to live my life, I went out, partied, did my part at school and worked hard. I had also gotten my G2 licence, which was a blessing in disguise. Whenever I became upset or just overwhelmed, I would take a step back, get into my car and drive. Drive as long as it took to clear my head. Throughout the broken friendships and heartbreak, it was a typical senior year which meant the world to me.
