As a teenager, many adults think, Oh she is young, she can do whatever she wants! Although that is true, it's also not true. As a senior in high school I find myself thinking about the future more often than I would like to admit. While many picture their senior year of high school partying, graduating, and spending time with friends, I think about academics, SAT and ACT testing, and the most stressful thing of all, college applications. Thinking about the sudden push to succeed from my parents and elder peers, I created a jar of inspirational quotes. I pick a few quotes from the jar daily and read them, becoming inspired and redeeming myself to continue my hard work towards success. Because of how much such a simple task has helped me, I wanted to share some inspirational quotes with you all with the hopes of inspiring you guys also.
