Cypress Ranch HS Choir Senior Wills 2021 Kristen Aviles I don't really know how to start this i feel like i've been writing me senior will since i found out these were a thing but now that i have to ive gone blank. This year has been strange, this isn't the senior year I had built up in my head but there's no way anyone could change our circumstances. We were dealt the cards and now we have to make the best of them. I told myself pretty early that I wouldn't let myself cry over my senior year, that so many people had it worse than me at the moment and the fact that I wouldn't get my last pop show was just a tiny spec of dust compared to what all was happening in the world. At the end of the day though as much as that is true it doesn't make it any less easy. The fact that I didn't get a normal pop show or winter concert, or even a choir olympics. The fact that my senior speech will have to be given on a zoom call, all of that stuff has slowly been chipping away at me this year. The only thing pulling me along is the thought that I traded this for a normal freshman year of college which has been strangely comforting this whole time. So no, this isn't the year i expected or wanted but it's what i got and there is nothing i could do to change that. Mrs.Douglas Mrs.Douglas, my earliest memory of you was my freshman year. I had gone to get my dress fitted before the school year started and while I was changing you tried to fit my sister into a dress thinking she was a student. My mom, sister and I laughed about it the whole way home thinking it was so funny that my sister still looked like a high schooler, something we tease her about a lot. After that any part of me that still saw you as a scary high school director melted away. After that you seemed like a fun director, and suddenly the move from middle school to high school wasn't so scary anymore. I think another defining moment in my high school career was funnily enough the Anthony middle school christmas concert. I was a freshman but I missed Mr. Bair so I went to volunteer to watch the students. You were there because chamber was performing. I remember watching them perform thinking they were so good. I was amazed at how a high school choir sounded that good. Though it was already my goal to begin with, that performance further solidified that all I wanted to do in high school was make it into chamber. After the concert was over though I went up to you to say bye but when I got to you, you were talking to one of the middle schoolers about chamber. Telling her how to get in, when she could audition, all the basics and as I stood there waiting to say goodbye, you turned in the middle if your conversation pointed to me and said “this one is gonna be in chamber choir one day” and that sentence alone made me the happiest camper. I got in the car with the biggest smile on my face because you thought I was good enough to be in chamber one day. Mr.Bishea At the end of freshman year I was not doing the best. I was anxious a majority of the time and I spent a good amount of time in the counselor's office. One time I had just walked into choir and as I wasn't feeling up to the challenge of standing for an hour because I had just cried my first period I asked if you could write me a pass to go to the counselors. You said of course but before you started to write the pass you turned around and asked if I was ok. And I almost lost it then and there I hadn't realised how much I wanted someone to ask me that. That has happened multiple times, after my dad had a heart attack and I went to region mock auditions and started to cry in the middle of it, or that one time I kinda passed out in chorale and was really scared. You always asked if I was ok and it was always when I needed it most and i’ll always be thankful for that. Megan MEGAN THOMAS!!! The only friend that I acquired in my life that I ever got into an argument with. We've been through a lot together though, and you were always there to tell me it was ok or to hear me ramble about something that was bothering me. I love you so much and the idea of going into our next year of schooling without you scares me to death. I've been in the same school as you since 6th grade. I feel like when I go to State and you're not there I'm gonna have a stroke or something. You Megan are one of the kindest, most caring, and intelligent people i've ever met. You have so much ahead of you and I can only really picture you being something super successful, like the president. Woah, imagine president Megan Thomas that'd be killer. You gotta promise me though that even when you're ruling the world or something like that, that i can still text you so we can talk about the newest picture Tom Holland posted. I love you Megan and I'm so happy that I got to spend all these years with you. Alaine Alaine, we have quite the history. I like to think that you were vital to my growth as a Person. We haven't always been the best of friends and i not too ashamed to say that as we've had like multiple long conversation about how strange our friendship timeline is, but I don't regret anything ive ever been through with you. Through the good times and the bad I cherish each bit of our friendship because I think without you I would be a very different person then I am now. You've seen me through some very rough times and for that i'm always grateful. Izzy Hi Izzy! It sucks that we haven't talked much this year but i chalk that up to strange covid times. Ya know i don't think i have a single bad memory with you. You are a very kind hearted person and hanging out with you was always something I looked forward to whether it was at a coffee shop or a theme park you were always a blast to be around. Remember that time you looked like you were gonna pass out on rip ride rockit at universal lol. I'm gonna miss you after this year. Erin Erin Miller. I don't remember who did it but someone freshman year convinced me that you were a mean person, and I'm so mad at them because you absolutely are not! I remember the first time I talked to you I was like huh Erins actually so nice and funny , and NOW when I think about what they said it just makes me angry because it's complete blasphemy. You're one of my best friends, I mean we went through being in theater together, and we made 100 water balloons by hand only to not use them. Those were rough times. I can't believe you're gonna be all the way in Lubbock. That's so far what am I gonna do without my president man. It's gonna be complete anarchy without you Mia Mia! One of the kindest people I know. I don't think you have a bad bone in your body. I'm so sad I won't be in the same choir as you come college. Who am I gonna listen for when I lose my place in the music? I'm really gonna miss you after this year. You have such a beautiful voice, I hope you keep singing after High School, even if it's just to your little sister. Im gonna miss you a lot Jenni Jenni i don't want to leave you next year man. What are the seniors without Jenni? I can't wait to come back and see you though. I'm sure next year's chamber is gonna be great, especially with you there. Who knows you might even win mads fest. I hope you get a normal year in chamber next year. Caroling and the hoco game are a lot of fun and i really hope you'll get to do all those things next year. Especially Mads Fest, going to San Antonio is so fun and you're gonna love it. Gibby Gibby I hope you know I don't actually hate you. Please it was always a joke. Sometimes I can't tell if YOU can tell if i'm joking. N e ways ya know paree told me the truth about that whole texting fiasco like that night lol #pranked. Ya know Gibby you are by far one of the kindest most funniest people i've met. You are like just a good friend no ifs ands or buts about it.
