Hi guys.

It's been a while... I was checking on my Chromebook to sign into my school account for my high school when I saw my old school account. I decided to go down memory lane and visit some of the websites and the digital classroom that we have. I went to ViaVox after remembering the articles we had to write for Computer Science at the time and looking at some of my classmates' old articles and looking back at my old terrible cringy articles lmao. I realized something important, appreciate what you have currently, appreciate life. I didn't necessarily enjoy middle school at this time and now looking back at it from another perspective, I realize that I had the best time of my life here.

Yeah, I was weird, annoying, and stupid, but I still had a lot of fun and it taught me to cherish the things I have right now. Another thing I learned from this is that time goes by quickly, really quickly. I went from a freshman straight out of Stupidville right to being a junior. Time goes by quickly whether you like it or not. I guess the people were right when they said that "time doesn't stop for anyone". So honestly... Just ride the wave! Have fun! Yes, life isn't fun sometimes but that doesn't mean that you cannot enjoy it. Keep a balance between having fun and doing your work. Doing too much work will hurt you physically and mentally and having too much fun will hurt you, maybe not now, but later. The point is, enjoy life! Don't let time get in the way! Sorry for making it cliché but it's true! Anyway, enough of all that, I just wanted to thank Saint Vincent School for letting me have the time of my life. From all the holiday parties we had to all the exams we took. I truly had a blast. And I extend my special thanks to all my classmates for making this a better experience for me, and for everyone. 

Thank you to...
