Poem
Dear freshman me,
Why didn’t you go watch Powder Puff? I promise, it’s really fun. Your classmates darting across the field for a once-a-year-event that you’ll only get once more of in your high school career?
Speaking of, freshman me, hug your friends more often, and hang out outside of school, because starting in March of next year, you won’t be able to for a while.
Girl, nobody is looking at how your silver homecoming high heels “clash” with your gold dress, no one noticed the piece of hair you forgot to straighten.
But I wish you had taken notice of the colorful banners that guarded the main staircase reading “Trivia Night”. I wish you had gone to Mr. THS, even if you’ve never spoken to any of those boys before.
They say it’s the best four years of your life, but how can you complain that it's not when you’ve never tried to make it so?
I have some good news for you, freshman me. 
You go to Powder Puff this year. You’re right on the field with your camera as yearbook editor.
You’re busy as often as you can stand it, October was a blackout BINGO card where every single day had an event.
Senior homecoming was a blast, and you care so little about your footwear that you trade the heels for tennis shoes, don’t mind when you get crushed by a passing crowd surfer, let alone your hair.
The play was amazing this year. You’ll be glad you went. With Nate, no less, who you’ll have known from your first day of preschool until your last day of high school, but had drifted apart because of lack of overlapping classes. 
You still have no classes with him, freshman me, but you hang out almost every week. Yesterday, he brought you Starbucks after you made a passing comment about how tired you were. 
My advice to you, younger me, is to go to the events. See your friends when you can. 
Reach out and make new ones. Keep a planner and thank your Link Leaders- you’ll be one someday.
Stay on top of your homework and go to as many ridiculous clubs that pop up. 
Freshman me, in a few months I’ll be a freshman again, and I hope I take this advice with me
When I go.
