Crossroad: Portrait of a High School Senior

At eighteen years old, I stand before a crossroad, a milestone in my life. After this school year, I am no longer a child who lives with mom and dad; I will be off at college, beginning a new chapter in my life. However, before I leave, there will be an abundant of memories that I will take with me. The true friends that I have made over the years have become everlasting in my heart. All of the unforgettable moments spent together full of laughs, giggles, and grins.

I will look back on my high school years, forever proud to be a Spudder, and remember the life long friends made. High school is also where I discovered my passion for mock trial and built a foundation for my future in law. I was only a freshmen surrounded by a sea of upperclassmen, when I began mock trial. After spending 4 years in the program and going to state each year, I have come to love and respect the law. My passion for the program has led me to consider a career within law.

When I have passed the bar and appear in court, I will not forget where I came from and the people who helped me get there. Today’s moments are tomorrows memories.
