"No More" by Rahul

No more counting on Noa to compare answers on homework to make last minute changes. No more “pssssstttss’s” at Sarah Beth to get her attention so I can copy the last note that went over my head. No more greeting Weston with a handshake and listening to how funny he says my name. No more seeing Faith with that enormous white smile to start my day off on a good note. No more seeing Dylan go “beast mode” and go crazy down the hallways, screaming in the faces of innocent little middle-schoolers just to see them cringe. No more hearing Beau’s timely and clever jokes when I am starting to have a rough day. No more of Riley’s hugs that absolutely make my day. No more random conversations with Phil, reminiscing on the fourth grade, and how we were best friends. No more comments to catch me off guard from Jill. No more sheepish smiles from Woo when I tell him that he needs to holler at a chick. No more Ivanna, and her thirst for knowledge. No more getting to know Lindsey and how awesome she is behind that quiet front. No more Todd, and his hair illuminating my day. No more Danielle, with her great writing that inspires us all when read aloud by Mrs. C. No more Jojo and her remarks to just about everything. No more reciting rap songs to capture on video with Leanna. No more of those gross, but hilarious belches from Holly. No more throwing up the X, and having Aalia being the only one to follow. No more talking to Steven about his El Camino and his new ice cream paint job. No more trying to give Kelsey “dap,” and her just giving me a high five. No more listening to Hannah comment on the fact that Noa and me sing all the time.

All of these “no mores” honestly make me sad. It hurts to know I may never see where the people I have grown so accustomed to may go in their life endeavors. You guys provide me the optimism to say that it will be okay, and we will all still keep in touch. I just want this Senior Class of 2010 to know that every single one of you will be missed, but for now, I will savor each and every moment I have with you. You will all be irreplaceable to me, and I hope that you can say the same about me.
