Three and a Half More Weeks
(Overcoming Challenges, Class of 2015)

It’s hard to piece together this year. It had its ups and it had its downs. Now that we only have a few more weeks left, Boards, finals, Challenge of the Guardian, Summer Assignments, everything is weighing us down heavily and we are all just ready for it to be over. Last night we had the Poetry Slam, where a poem from every class was read by its writer in a face off with all the other class’s poems, and it made me realize how much our class relies on each other. This year truly did bring us together closer as a class. Seeing everybody stand up and cheer for almost every poem that was presented while still maintaining our professionalism and respect for all the other performers was pretty nice to see. We all have each other’s backs no matter what we go through, and I have seen that develop throughout this year and it has been such a great experience to be a part of that! We see the end in sight and its gotten to the point where we are all motivating each other to keep going, to just finish out 4/c year. It’s been hard but only a few more weeks and then we will finally be done.
