Today I have to go up to the school for the last time--truly the last time--just to tie up some loose ends before moving on. I have a theatre meeting, graduation practice, and some certificates/cords to pick up for graduation.
I'm still not sure if I'm going to miss it. Hm.
I feel like theatre, I won't miss for a while. It's bee such work this year, with so little fun in return. I could still do endless amounts of work over the next three days and not be done to get the new officers on track, but you know what? I'm not going to. I have faith in their ability to learn and shape our department, with or without the guidance they deserve. They will do phenomenally, and I am relieved that I can leave it to them.
What has this experience taught me? That hard work is not always repaid, that some people truly have no concept of responsibility, and that it often sucks to be the person everyone turns to to get work done. But I have also learned that it is possible to be teenagers without being immature and dramatic, that there is such a thing as a family of friends, that relationships are probably the most important thing. And I have met so many amazing people this way, people I will never forget nor stop loving with all my heart.
Whatever else this theatre department has been to me, I will always remember it as a place of friendship.
