These past four years have had their ups and downs. At one point I truly thought, \u201cMy high school experience has been a trepid crawl through the pits of hell,\u201d but that\u2019s just not true. I\u2019ve made so many great memories, so to say all of high school has been terrible just isn\u2019t fair. At the same time, I was relieved when teachers and parents started telling us that these four years shouldn\u2019t be the best years of our lives. I don\u2019t want this to be the climax to my life, because I hope to live for a long time, so I don\u2019t want everything else to be downhill from here. I want to continue to relive and make new great memories while also learning from my mistakes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

High school has given me a great opportunity to figure stuff out about myself and the world around me. I\u2019ve come up with my own beliefs, but I know there\u2019s still so much more to learn. I\u2019ve made my fair share of stupid mistakes, but I\u2019ve learned from those mistakes. Slowly, I\u2019m seeing my character improve.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

My personality has changed so much as well. I\u2019ve become more mature, and I try to watch the things I say and joke about. I\u2019ve also become more confident in myself. That confidence has helped me be less socially awkward and more outgoing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

To relate this all to videogames, high school is just another long tutorial teaching us how to play the game of life. And no one should have more fun with the tutorial than the real game.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
