Answer :

Congratulations on your achievement. This is a special time in you life. Treasure it! Most people don’t peak in high school though. My own senior year in high school was a lot of fun. Sadly, I only attended the high school I graduated from my senior year so I didn’t have the kinds on long-time friendships most do. I did have a group of close fiends though. We did a lot of fun things together. Also, my high school was huge. There were 640 plus in my graduating class. The ceremony itself was pretty boring to me. By that point, I was ready to move on.
