Prompt #7

For the past two years my best friend has made me photo albums for Christmas. This year my album was full of memories from my senior year. The first pages are filled with pictures of my friends and I; bowling at the bowling alley, celebrating birthdays, hanging out on New Years, and just random pictures at school. There is one picture from our Senior Banquet where a senior prank got out of hand. Some of the senior boys opened all of the unlocked lockers and threw everything in them on the floor. Our principal was not happy. It was his first year as principal of Bangor High School and I think he learned many lessons from my class. Three pages are reserved for Prom. My three best friends and I are posing with our dates at Cascade Park. When we all wanted to leave, our parents clung on to us asking for one more picture. One more picture turned into thirty more pictures. The last pages are from our graduation. Some pictures show my friends and I with big smiles as we show off our caps and gowns. Others show group hugs with tear filled eyes as we said goodbye to our high school lives. This photo album is so special to me. Flipping through the pages brings back so many memories of such a wonderful chapter in my life.
