I just recently got my senior pictures taken by a photographer. I put them into my iphoto so I could make a slideshow to show my parents. I showed them all of the photos and them made my own file of the ones I liked. I think its a little strange that seniors are required to get these fancy photos taken of themselves. But then at the same time it works. It's documenting you before you go off and change everything. Your leaving a piece of yourself at a certain time behind. Like a time capsule. This is me, looking my best, during my last year of high school. Can you believe I've made it? Can you believe how grown up I'm am? In the next few years this time capsule will transform into a young naive girl who still has to experience the world on her own. Or maybe it's just portraying "the best years of my life." I never liked high school much, but I can see why people miss it.
It's a huge part of the life you'll be leaving behind. It's a place you've grown comfortable with. It's a place where you can be close to all your securities. The friends you've know , your parents, your house, your car, your siblings, your town. You are tied into a place where everyone is on the same level taking relatively the same classes. It's safe. Despite my understanding, I'm still ready to move one. Live on my own. I still want to be close to the people I love. I want to bring Ian wherever I go. I know I will. Whether he is with me or not. I think I'd also like to bring Sophia, at least for a little while. The others will come and go. I know I'll stay connected to several no matter what. My high school years have helped me grow. I'm ready to move to the next level. Look, I have pictures to prove it.

These are very impressive. You look really sweet. The last one is beautiful, it turned out much better than I thought. You're a goddess.
