There are a couple of things I'm sure about though. I will never throw it away. I'll never forget yesterday. All those wasted time, hours that were left behind, answers that we'll never find: they do mean a thing. And although this year was a long, exhausting, hellhole of a year, there were still the ups of the twisted roller coaster of a year that is Sophomore year. The people who were at your side, the people who held your hand when you were scared, the people who screamed along with you, the people who loved you, the people who laughed, cried, and did both at the same time with you: They made you stronger and shook you to your core. They helped you grow from your innocent little selves fresh from first year into the battered, exhausted, yet wiser and more mature post-Sophomores you are today. They made second year worth all the nauseous twists and turns.

"I now believe that when you slave your butt off to achieve something, to the point that other important things backfire, you will never ever regret it.

When you really really really want something, and you work INSANELY hard to get it, you won't be left empty handed.

It won't be easy. As a matter of fact, it'll be hell. But it'll all. Be worth it. In the end.

I've avoided asking myself what the hell I've been doing with my life. I've stopped wondering why the hell I'm in Pisay. I just try. Try. To reach for whatever I've been reaching for these past 14 years. And it doesn't matter whether I grab onto it or not. That's why there are four years of high school. It takes patience, and perseverance. And sweat. And blood. And effing tears. It'll seem useless. A waste of time. Your childhood flushed down the drain.

But it won't be. It truly won't be worthless.

The world isn't pretty. And I don't regret being taught that at an early age. Well, I sometimes do. But there's still that light. At the end... yes I know. CHEESY. There's that light at the end of the tunnel. This dark, twisty, murky, hellhole of a tunnel. And that light. That light is what keeps me going. It's what keeps all of us going.

It'll all be worth it. It has to be."
