The worst experience I had was being the new girl and trying to find my way round the school. I was always getting lost and going into wrong classes.

The high school experience changed me by giving me way better skills that I had before I came to Thousand Oaks High School.

    Reflecting back I don’t think there’s a single thing I’d change, from the very few bad times, to all the great times of laughter and pure awesomeness.

But most of all I’ll probably miss my friends, and all the weird stuff they say and do and how awesome they make every moment that would otherwise be not nearly as cool. Yes, I will miss them.
