Some friends and I visited Arcadia High earlier this week to take advantage of the fact that the high school’s break starts later than ours. It was really fun to catch up with my old teachers and see the underclassmen (who are now upperclassmen!).
Visiting the high school brought back a lot of memories- classes, off-campus lunches, friends… it’s still kind of weird that we aren’t students at Arcadia High anymore. Although Arcadia itself is a very familiar environment, it felt slightly foreign for us to visit because we really have no purpose to be on campus. We literally went from playing outsized roles in the school to playing no role, and that dramatic shift leaves a strange feeling.
Our lives have moved so fast. With the blink of an eye and the turn of a head, we are all 1/8 done with college and visiting the high school as alumni.
Who knows where we will all be with another blink?
