Friends Turn Into Family: Junior Year At Burtontlc

I'm almost done with my junior year of high school. It's really quite crazy how by this time of next year I'll graduate high school. Thinking about this as I finish up the school year, it's sad, and scary, but yet it's exciting! I've made some really good friends at my school! This is my first year at Burton Tutoring and Learning Center, and I only knew one person in September. It's now May, I know a total of four people (super small school), we've become really good friends!

Friends turn into family. We've kind of become a family in a way. We pick on each other constantly, laugh at each other, blame almost everything on one of us, (don't take this literally!!!) we 'kill' each other using physics and chemistry, and we always have a great time in classes. At this school we have anywhere from 1-5 classes, so we're not always in the same classes together. During lunch we some times hang out in the office, and have the weirdest/most interesting conversations. While we wait for lab, same thing, we talk about really fun things. We get sidetracked and way off topic in pretty much every class, it's so fun! We all are Christians (I'm pretty sure), and our teachers are too, there's also the fact that the school is inside of a church. But we learn about God while learning about other subjects.

I am the oldest one in my whole school, and yet, I never feel like I am. I love it! Haha, I really don't know how that happens. Probably because I'm not the smartest person there, and I'm not saying that to put myself down. I'm smart but I'm not the smartest. Everyone is smart just in different areas in life. I usually don't like being the oldest of a class or a church small group, just because I like having people to look up to and who already knows about what's I'm working on at school or in high school in general. I like to be the oldest too, because I can give them advice if they ask. But just not at church. I'm weird like that, it's fine.

I don't know if I'm going back to this school next year. Even if I do, I don't know if all of my friends will still be there. Senior year. It'll be worth the math homework and other things that I don't like. I know for a fact that I am going to miss my Burtontlc family. Whether I stay for a class or two next year or if I don't, I will miss them. These next few school days are definitely going to be bittersweet! By the way, freshmen, enjoy every moment of high school you can. You'll blink and you'll be finishing up your junior year.
