Historias de Senioryearofhighschool

A classic coming of age story with a few twists. Aelena is starting her senior year of high-school but unlike the usually coming of age stories, she hasn't obtained the "summer glow-up" we're so used to reading about, she's still the same old Aelena. That is, until someone comes back into her life, and she thinks she may have a second shot at love. And for this love, she is willing to do...anything...

This is a creative non fiction essay that I wrote in my AP English class my senior year. This is about how I came out.

Hi! I'm Maire- sixteen-year-old struggling writer, Christian, doomed-to-fail-Physics average teenage girl. For the past eight years, I've been stuck with my best friend, Niko- who's about as different from me as you can get. Surviving Senior Year is difficult- we all know that. It's harder when you're on your own. It's hardest when Niko never leaves you alone. But she's been with me through thick and thin for half my life now- and while I regret a lot, I'll never regret being her friend. For better or for worse, Niko, I'm stuck with you. *** Yo! I'm Niko, a 15 year old struggling writer, skeptic, doomed-to-fail Filipino semi-average teenage girl. For the past 8 years I've been stuck with my best friend, Maire. She and I are like fire and water. Surviving what we consider Senior Year is difficult, we all know that. It's harder when you're on your own. It's hardest when Maire never leaves you alone. But she's stuck with me through thick and thin for half my life now-and while I regret a lot (A LOT) of things, I'll never regret being her friend. For better or for worse (most likely the latter), Maire, I'm stuck with you. *** (M: I'd better be the coffee in that picture) (N: Whatever)
