The Beginning of the End

Tomorrow marks the beginning of the end. 

It’s full firsts and lasts, constants and changes.

It’s my last first day of high school.

It’s my first day of grade twelve.

It’s the last time my mom will take a zillion pictures of me with my backpack by the front door.

But maybe, it’s the first day of the rest of my life.

Tomorrow, I start grade twelve.   It’s less exciting than you’d think, but I’m still bizarrely excited.  I actually like learning things.  I’m excited to see what this year brings. 

Well, an end of summer walk is calling my name – I’ll fill you in on the first-day details tomorrow!
