To be honest, I was in such a weird place in my life. I skipped senior awards nights before, and I even attempted getting out of walking across the stage, and I didn't want to participate in Project Graduation with the rest of my class. The only thing out of those three that I did was walk the stage. My mom's diagnosis was weeks before and I all of a sudden didn't care about high school anymore, like at all. That night instead of project graduation I packed and pulled an all nighter getting ready to spend a month at Camp Tejas, which I may not be going to this Summer for the first time since the Summer before I was in third grade. It's such a weird feeling, I seriously feel like a part of me is missing haha but I just don't know if that's where I need to go this Summer.
Usually the Summer before entering their first year of college people have the time of their life. I barely remember my Summer, it was a blur. Camp and then we hit the ground running with Mom. As much as my family drives me crazy, I'm glad that I spent all the time I could with them rather than being with other people. I also learned VERY quickly who true friends were, and that I don't have very many yet I still choose to be friends with everyone. We had camp fees and school fees payed for us last year. These people did it anonymously so if you happen to read this .. you know who you are, THANK YOU. We were so blessed by you. To the people who have supported me and were there for me last Summer/this year. Thank you so much. Our journey isn't over yet, please keep our family lifted in prayer.
To my childhood bestie Sammi, my boyfriend Ben and my 2011 graduate friends,
congratulations I am SO proud of all of you! Keep on pushing, there are great things ahead.
