The 2013-2014 school year has gone by in what seems like moments.
Before our very eyes, it has flown by like every other year. This year
is different though. This is our year. Class of 2014, we have had our
ups and downs but they’re all behind us now because
WE MADE IT.

As this year comes to a close,
I’ve realized a few things. One: You
can never have enough Moose Tracks
ice cream. Two: hot bubble baths are
good for the soul. Three: It’s okay to
cry over math, even if the teacher says
it’s a simple lesson.
With end of the year homework/work/college stress piling up, my
sweet tooth has made itself at home,
and it loves ice cream. Preferably ice
cream with peanut butter cups and
dark chocolate chunks. I am trying to
avoid spending my money food, because I need a car and I should really
be eating healthier. But the other day,
I couldn’t stop myself from going to
Sophie’s. Halfway through my scoop, I
realized that I was being silly. Saving
money is great, but so is being happy.
And at the moment, ice cream does
Dear Ms. Walters,
Well, we made it! Your babies
are moving on to bigger and better
things. You have no idea how much we
are going to miss you. You have been
here for us from the very beginning
and we are forever grateful.
Choir has been an amazing
adventure, inside and outside of class.
You were one of the people that we
could go to with anything. If we were
upset you’d give us a hug and tell us
everything was going to be okay. If we
were happy and excited you’d be happy and excited with us. You’ve always
been there for anyone no matter the
reason.
Whenever we had a concert
you’d get stressed out, but you would
tell us how well we were doing and
what we could do better in the kindest
way possible. When we said we sucked
you said otherwise and helped us fix
what needed fixing.
that for me.
Maybe Moose Tracks isn’t your
favorite. Maybe you don’t like ice cream
at all. But there is something that you
enjoy. Something simple, whether it’s
edible or not, that brings a smile to
your face and eliminates your problems
for the time it takes to consume it. Do
not hesitate to indulge in that. I hate
to see people avoiding something they
love because they’re worried about
gaining weight or what someone else
might think. If it makes you happy and
is good for your well-being, do it. Indulgence isn’t always bad.
I’ve always had a terrible habit of procrastinating really important
things and getting stressed out when
I realize how close the deadline is.
This is not a good habit and I’ve come
to terms with that. I’ve also come to
terms with something far more impor
We had many adventures together. Some of us got to spend more
time with you than others. Most have
been with you since 6th grade, some
since freshman year, some of us brand
new this year, and some of us that left
and found our way back where we
knew we were welcome.
We are going to miss you a lot,
KDub. Even though it’s just another
group of seniors, we know you lose
some every year. You will always hold a
special place in our heart.
So when we’re jamming out in
the car to some song on the radio and
randomly start harmonizing, we’ll think
“Man, KDub taught us that.” You’re
the best, Ms. Walters. Thank you for
everything you do and always remember how many lives you touched in the
Class of 2014! Missing you already!
Love always,
Your Seniors
tant. Taking a break. I get very frustrated when I am confused and until
recently, I underestimated the value of
taking a moment to just breathe.
After a few anxiety attacks and
more than a few crying sessions last
year, I figured out what I needed to
do (besides time management). Take
a hot bubble bath. I needed something to clear my head and relax my
body, and this did the job. So I started
making time for baths on nights when
I was buried in homework, because I
realized that my general health is more
important than my grades. I don’t think
people realize that sometimes. Stress
impacts not only your mood, but how
well you do whatever work you’ve been
handed.
Put down your pencil if you’re
crying too hard to see the paper. Take
a 10 to 20 minute break to concentrate
on something completely different.
Whether it’s a bath, a book, drawing,
whatever calms you down. Do it, enjoy it thoroughly, then move on to your
work, It makes a difference.
Speaking of crying, I have
done quite a bit of that this year. Particularly over my homework. This may
or may not be because I almost failed
algebra I and II. Apparently it’s unusual
and detrimental to your grade to forget
two years of math. I have a problem
when it comes to being confused or
not understanding math. It makes me
feel stupid and upset. So naturally, I
cry. I have asked my teacher for help,
but I usually get discouraged because
teachers underestimate my level of
misunderstanding.
After a few crying sessions, I
started to see a pattern. I would start
my homework and cry because I was
completely lost. Finally I went to a
friend for help. Between the crying and
asking for help there was a refreshing
deep breath because I got the frustration out of my system. I could think
clearly enough to go to someone other
than a teacher, explain my situation,
and get help.
Crying over your homework
is okay. Maybe you’re not one to cry.
Maybe it’s not homework you’re crying over. The point is, expressing your
emotions is healthy. It clears your
mind. It makes it possible for you to
move on with whatever your problem
is. So sit down and cry. Tell a friend
what’s on your mind. Write it all down
if you don’t think you have someone to
talk to.
Stress is inevitable, but being
miserable is not. Your health and sanity
will always hold more value than your
GPA, and I can promise you that. So
take life one day at a time, enjoy every
day, and don’t forget to cry every once
in a while.

it to the class reunion.
This may seem unlikely
to some, but most people are
headed in very different directions, taking them somewhere
in Indiana or maybe even further than that.
Some may stay around
Grant County for convenience,
to save money, or maybe just
because their college of choice
Others will be headed

Good luck, Class of 2014.

before you go...
Leaving home to move somewhere without your parents to supply you with all the junk you normally
have at home can be scary to some people. So that it’s not as frightening, we’ve compiled a few lists
of things you will need to take to fill your dorm room, some that you may not have thought to bring
with you. Some of these may depend on your rooming situation, but it’s great to know what you
need ahead of time if you don’t know what your situation is yet!
