I've grown up as a pretty shy person. I liked to stay in my own bubble as well as only talk to the few friends I had. However, by coming to FSHA and as well as doing theatre, I have been able to step outside of my bubble. I chose this song because during times of trouble, it is easy to think that you are alone and you have no one to guide you. This song reminds me and those who listen to it that no one is alone.

It's hard for me to trust people. It's even harder for me to give my friends titles like "best friend", "closest friends". However, when I think of Sofie, I do think of her as my best friend. Besides the fact that we do literally everything together and we always hang out, she is the one I go to during times of need. She is the one who influences me the most as I go to her for advice as well as to make sure i make the right choices in my day to day life.

Something that most teenagers are eager to do. I wanted to get my license the second I was able to get it and I did, but it was two months after I turned 16. Besides that, driving is the number one thing that represents coming of age to me. Regardless of what  age you get your license, it is a big responsibility. It's influenced me as a way to take responsibility, help my parents by taking my brothers places and also appreciate the times when my mom drove me an hour away to hang out with a friend.

A time that is long awaited. I didn't know who I really was until I entered high school. Everything happens for a reason and I know that I was meant to come to FSHA. Going to an all girls school and being with people who I have never met before has made me who I am today because I came here. If I had gone to any other school, I would have different friends, different interests and a lot more different things about myself.

Everyone should embrace their differences and not compare themselves to others. However, we are who we are because God has a plan for us. It's not good to compare our "flaws" to others' strengths. It's taken me a long time to accept my differences and my "flaws" and instead of being insecure about them, I have learned to love them.

In theatre, I've spent most of my time doubting my abilities to perform as a certain role. As I doubted myself, I was taking myself further away from actually getting the role and also spending time with my classmates. We shouldn't be hard on ourselves, instead be proud of the things we are doing.

We would all love to know what our future holds, but i think it's important for us to realize that even though the road ahead is going to be windy and challenging, God will guide us towards the right path.

The girls who I spent most of my day with. Although I haven't considered them as my closest friends until this year, they are those who influence my social location the most. I go to them first if I ever need anything and I know that they will always have my back. They have taught me certain values that i will take on with me to college and we have made memories that i will never forget.

The girls I have known for four years now. If I had gone to any other high school or been part of any other class, I probably would be a different person today. They make up my social location not only because we are together in the same school but also because we all grow together. Each individual in my class has helped me understand and grow as an individual.

The people who i laugh with, I cry with, I stay up until 10:00 pm with during tech week, and the people I won't forget when I go to college. We always have each other's backs. We go through tough rehearsals, but make memories through them. The reason why I chose them as an important aspect of my social community is because I don't see myself today without theatre. These people are the reason why I chose to do theatre for all four years during my high school time. They always have my back.

"I don't know if the path's all drawn out ahead of time, or if it corkscrews with each step like in Alice's Wonderland, or if, as some like to say we make the road by walking, but I believe the journey is more labyrinth than maze" (180)
