In Which I Introduce the Blog and Reflect on High School

I figured post-convocation was as good a time as any to start a new blog. This probably won't turn into much, but it's a way to keep everyone updated while I'm away. I will do my best to update semi-regularly, but I'm not all that organized and won't have wifi in res (BOOOO). Oh yeah, and I'll probably have homework and stuff to take care of, too. But I promise I'll make an effort.

Now that that's out of the way, cue the sappiness. Feel free to skip the next paragraphs if you want; I just wanted to put it out there. And hey, maybe it'll serve as material for some kid's valedictorian speech next year.

I guess my time at MMC could best be described as a roller-coaster ride. Lots of highs, lots of lows, and it left me with a slight adrenaline rush. I met lots of friends (some of whom will hopefully stay with me for the rest of my life) and got to experience so much. It's hard to believe how much I've grown because of this! Thanks mostly to my parents and my teachers, I've learned how to get up on stage and perform without wanting to puke; how to drive (no thanks to Jasvir); how to pull all-nighters; why I shouldn't take things so personally and that it's OK to ask for help. That said, I'm glad to be done. After awhile, you get tired of going to classes you'll never use and having to put up with stupid drama. Here's hoping I'm leaving some of that behind...
