A girl of incredible determination,
Nothing intimidates her,
Not even the steepest challenges.
A girl who is filled with the brightest brilliance,
And even though she has the gift of intelligence,
She puts her all in to everything that she does,
Remaining humble and helpful to her peers.
A girl who spreads happiness with her personality.
Supported by her elegance and beauty,
She lights up other’s lives with the glance
of her deep green eyes.
 
 
They will
always tell
you to have some
patience when you are
waiting for something good
something that will make your heart skip
that beat, that single moment that
will completely change your life, scraping all your dreams
together in to one singular
moment that will just appear out of thin air.
when in reality you generate
the creation of that moment. 
gathered from opportunities,
not preservation of underserving luck
plunge in to the full pool of
hard work, blood, sweat, and tears.
Because in reality,
The best will not
come easy.
 
Day one, nerves running high
The stress is unimaginable, the pressure
of navigating this colossal school is too great.
As freshman year was tackled,
The nerves as well as the pressure were still present.
Am I taking enough AP classes? Can I pass the exams?
Senior year approached, the nerves subsided
But the pressure intensified.
Transcripts, scholarships, and applications
Took hold of even my deepest dreams.
Now that it is time for college,
These nerves and feelings of pressure have disappeared.
Seabreeze has prepared me for this time
And taught me some of the most valuable lessons in life.
Now I know, that I am ready.
