Memories, all alone in the moonlight
I can think of the old days, life was beautiful then....
well, so I'm a reminiscer, and if I can try and even remember what I miss most about high school, or even my school, it might have to be....this can get hard...I might even get misty-eyed...
and then when I think about what I will miss most about this place...it really might trigger waterworks, and well, you guys are a part of it...
anywho. think about those good times...see if you can recapture those moments. go out on a limb, dare to be a little sappy, for those old times...enjoy.

There are so many things I will miss about Westy. What I will miss most is the feel of the daily routine. Going to Baxter, seeing your friends that are on the same schedule as you, eating lunch with them. Hanging out in the library and foyer and of course going down to the rink for practice. Watching things happen in the locker room that can't even be described. I will also miss the feeling of endless opportunity that I had my first 3 and even 3.5 years. I felt as if anything was possible. I hope this feeling returns soon.
Thing I will miss most about Westy has to be my friends and the camraderie that is apparrant here at Westy. I have made the closest friends of my life here and I have made the best memories. I will always remember just hanging out on the quad on sunny spring days with everyone tanning, throwing frisbees, and just having fun. I hope to find the same sort of close community at SMU, but then I realize that nothing will ever match up to how close everyone at Westy is. I will find my friends at SMU, but I will miss just hanging out and not having to worry about what comes next. In the spring at Westy, the seniors have no worries. We are into college and we are just gliding to the end of the year. Once we hit college, that will nevner happen again. From freshman year to senior year in college we have to be worried about what we will major in and then what we will do outside of college. I love being on the hill and I will miss it and my friends next year more than anything, but I know I will stay in touch with my closest friends, and now I am siked for reunions!
I will miss soccer preseason and practices. I remember softmore year when we started the season off with 6 wins no losses and then we lost our first game, Mr Ulrichs speech started with him saying, "i haven't been out on a date with my wife in 3 years" i couldnt stop laughing at him, eventually kevin briggs made me bite my arm to stop laughing but its memories of Ulrichs wierd things ill miss.
my favorite memory from westy was the last night of school junior year. we had just spent a week taking our final exams and packing up our belongings. it had been a tough week having to say goodbye to many of my close senior friends, and i was nervouse about what school would be like without them around. It was pooring rain, as the rest of the school departed from williams hill. However our form had to stay behind an extra day to take the sat II's the following morning. Heidi and i ran over to Edge and sat in the empty singles we are now living in. For over an hour we sat on the floor of the bare room and thought about everythign we wanted to accomplish our senior years, and how excited we were for '07. Later that night our entire grade ended up on the quad mud sliding, playing capture the flag, and taps. I knew at that moment that my senior year would be great, even with the absence of my older friends, and I waiting in anticipation for it to begin.
My worst westminster memory involves a few deans, a radiotor, and my good friend bob. But i would prefeer not to reminance about that one, because i still havnt quiet gotten over it.
What i will miss most about westy is the people. I have never meet a community where i have felt so comfortable and relaxed. I will miss heidi's fossilized fruit cores, kelsea's face getting red, leigh's enthusuastic hand motions, skymy's "i like im really funny" laugh, zach tayne in the foyer, katilyn morton making fun of chelsea and her bow, watching boys hockey games, making annies mac and cheese in ms. ro's, taking care of gus, skipping special assemblies...there is not just one thing, it is all these things together that will make it so hard to leave, and make me miss westy so much
I will miss the naivitee of westminster. These past 3 years, all i have had to worry about is what is going on at school, and where i am going to college. There has been no real thought to the outside world, or what goes into going here. Things that have happened to me at my time at westminster that seemed so important, are completely insignificant in the grand scheme of things. I am nervous for what comes next, bbecause i will not have this small school to protect me
What i will miss most about west is simply the people. The people here are by far the best part of the school. In my time here i have made some great friends, that i hope to keep throughout life. If the people here were not so great, i dont think i would have been able to get through three years at this place. The community here is great, and the people truly make westy what it is.
In general i am going to miss westy like no other. The people i have met i know will be people i am friends with forever. if not they are sitll people who have made me a better person. There are the little things that i will miss, like staying up late in the dorm and talking about random stuff, and making up stupid dances, getting ready fro dances, going out to dinner with friends, and spending sunny sundays out on the quad. I know it may sounds a little cheesy, but i am going to miss the community. i love how wheather you are a senior or freshman, people most liekly will alwasy say hi to you, they help you feel comfrotable, and when your on the quad, senior lawn, foyer, there are so many people to feel comfrotable around. the people at westy are the best, and just being with them 24/7 is all i could ask for.
p.s. jro, i will miss you a lot, but we will see eachother, and i'm sorry these posts are really late, but maybe a game of wii can make up fro them?......not.
