"Don't be so conceited. This is not some storybook. Here, people die and are never even mentioned, and only those who make an impact are called heroes. And you, most certainly, are not the latter." Myra grew up on the stories her father told of adventure, magic, and action. The hero even had her name! But as he and time passed, the wonder from those magic times faded. But when one day seems to be the start of an amazing adventure, Myra learns a truth that the stories never taught her: that heroes grow up, and you're not always one of them. *Irregular updates, more on the way though!*

With only his mom at his side, he has to battle through his senior year of high school as a stranger. His dad is back in Florida, and the only thing Adrik has to remember his grandfather by are his glasses. However, when Adrik finally takes a glance through these ancient lenses, his whole perspective is going to change. His problems now won't seem to matter at all compared to the problems he will encounter once he takes that first glance.

I firmly believe that graduation instills in everyone a feeling of nostalgia. Which is why, as I attempt to find my seat at graduation rehearsal, I find myself stumbling into hidden pockets of memories that had long been shoved into the back of my mind by the stress of high school. Faces will forever be the bookmarks of our lives. Different people take us back to different moments that we would love to relive or rather forget. As we view everyone, we are reminded of who we once were and who we will strive to be. They stir up emotions of love, jealousy,hatred, thankfulness, helplessness as we view how others have grown and often compare their progress to ourselves. Welcome to graduation, the last moments of juvenility, as we look back on our past selves and strive to see the future. ** She has regrets when she looks back at her high school years. She regrets the person she turned into. She regrets that she didn't realize that she didn't want to be that person sooner. She regrets that she didn't become her own person until later.

And she can't say that she regrets the memories, however hard they are to relive because in the end, they helped compose the person she is as she walks across the graduation stage. So on the true final day of her high school years, she sees and she remembers. *continuously being updated
