Every year for the past— what feels like FIVE YEARS— has felt like the most formative year of my life. That can’t be true, can it? I’d like to be done forming! Can life stop throwing events my way that fundamentally shake my understanding of my place in the world, and who i am? I can wish, but it seems unlikely. The fact of the matter is, i wouldn’t be where i am now, against all the odds, were it not for my friends. Thank you to everyone i’ve grown close with, am growing to know more, and everyone i will come to know in the future. Your presence makes life worth living.

Anyways, 2024 is, for me, a year marked by extreme change and emotional turmoil, accompanied by an everlasting promise of hope and prosperity. I don’t mean this in a bleak way; what i mean to say is that— despite all the struggles i’ve faced, whether it be physical or financial or emotional— it has all been worth something. I’m attending the college of my dreams, with the purpose of chasing my dreams, wishfully bent on changing the world however i can. I love running after goals, and my career thus far at Flagler has given me oh-so-many to chase. I don’t think there’s a college in Florida I’d rather be at, and i’m thankful for that.

Somehow, despite all the horrific happenings in the world right now (especially politically) I’m hopeful for the future, and what 2025 and beyond has to bring. May we all fight for a better future, arms interlocked, with an undying love for humanity.
