Another year and come and gone and while some students are anxious for the end-of-the-year holidays, other wonder where all the time has gone. Along with the holidays and the onslaught of frenzied holiday shopping, December signifies the end of another eventful year. The year 2009 has been filled with many firsts in history, but it has also been a continuance for many other trends and traditions. Even in AHS itself, 2009 was filled with many achievements by students and teachers alike. So as the year draws to an end, students share the various aspects of 2009 that they will genuinely miss.
2009 has been another successful year for the AHS band and as the members commend each other on another year of hard work and dedication, senior Nathan Young reflects not only on how memorable his four years of band were, but on how memorable his final season was. He will miss “going through all the rehearsals and competitions with the marching band.” But this year for the graduating seniors is special, “knowing this is our ‘last time.’”
Senior Amy Qiu will also miss the feelings and adrenaline that accompany another cherished activity in AHS: tennis. It is likely that she will “never experience something like that again” and she will miss “being the one who mostly helped organize things,” “going on away games,” and “bonding with the team.”
As some students will miss the trials and tribulations that exist in team efforts, others will miss one-time classes. Senior Jocelyn Huey simply states that “I will miss being in chem[istry].”
