It's came to my attention that I still have two more blogs to write, so I apologize if they are in no way about Chic-Fil-A. I'm sure you won't mind that much.
Tonight was senior awards night. At first I was skeptical about how it was gonna' go, I really didn't know how many people were going to attend, or how serious it would be taken in general. I have to say, I was impressed. The auditorium was full kids and parents, most of which were adorned in nice outfits. If you didn't already know, I won the "Best Ninja" award. You may have seen me sprint to the stage and tumble across and receive my award. It was no big deal.
As soon as I got home I got on Facebook of course. I chuckled to myself as I saw numerous statuses about the end of senior year, and how no one was ready for it to be over. I'm sorry to do this, but I told you so people. The same people who had been ready to move on for so long are laying in their beds tonight lying wide awake with so many things on their minds. Things concerning the activities of their senior year of high school. They're probably thinking about all the things they missed, or the things they were just "too cool" to do. I really only have a small hint of advice for them.
Stop.
Sure, we all made mistakes as a teenager. We all at one point have done something we wish we hadn't. Or not done something we wish we had. Come one though, we have a couple weeks left. Stop fumbling through your regrets; start making up for them. I know 12 days isn't that many, but you would be surprised about how much you can do in that short amount of time, especially considering our situation. Do everything you can these next days, do a lot of things you won't regret.
I know I will.
