STAC Wall

I can almost see myself reflecting back to this day later on in the year. Making a mural that I will see everyday for the rest of my high school life.  It was a nice way to begin my second year of STAC and semi-disentangle my senior year status in life. Because we already worked on core values and issues a bit last year, I was not hesitant on what to write. I simply allowed everything to flow out. The only reason I restricted myself was for STAC publicity executive decisions, but that did not hinder myself from knowing the truth for myself even if everyone else can't see it. Most of the words came from my subconscious and after looking at them and considering them more deeply I realized defining characteristics about myself in the moment. Last year I was in an incredibly different and more vulnerable state than this year. This year I am vulnerable but in a confident way. I also feel more calm throughout the day. Perhaps it is the effect of having off periods and being a senior in a school I am familiar with. I am excited to be able to track my progress and change throughout the year by looking back on my beginning year defining words.
