When I look back into my first few years at Lewisville HS, I want to try and remember every single memory I have, but I know that it’s all the little things that make the biggest impact on our lives. Whether it was hearing the drumline barreling down the hallways, seeing the students line up with excitement following one another down to the gym, or my first time performing with Diamonds, scanning the bleachers seeing everyone look back at us, waiting for the music to start and the entertainment to begin. We all have those little moments that seem like nothing to someone else but means the world to you in your heart.
As my senior year began, I started to realize how off track I had become with almost everyone and everything in school. I no longer wanted to forget everything I did in high school nor did I want to regret the things who made me who I am today. Little did I know that it was too late, way too late.
Than I joined the Farmers’ Harvest and found a set of inspiring, dedicated and open-minded students. In the beginning I was scared that I wasn’t able to live up to their expectations, but I learned that each and every single one of them depended on one another, leaned on one another and became a family. They changed my view on life and filled in a hole in my heart that was waiting to be filled; the spot that you save for the people you meet senior year that you will never forget. The ones who sing Spongebob songs with you in the hallways, or the one who will make random noises with you when you try to stay focused. Even though I was not here long guys, I will never forget any of you nor will I say goodbye to Farmers’ Harvest. Thank you for everything guys, you gave me everything I needed to end my senior year.
I don’t want to say goodbye to Lewisville High School, the students, the teachers, the dreams and the memories. When you say goodbye, you let go of the spirit, the friends, the mentors, the aspirations, and the fragments of our lives that are all connected. This school built who we are, so don’t say goodbye because our stories do not end now.
