I just turned eighteen. It feels like I'm standing on the edge of something huge, like the whole world is waiting for me just beyond this door. One moment I'm the girl who used to count the days until summer vacation, and the next, I'm holding the key to my own future. I'm young, and I know I have a lot to learn. My hands might still shake a little when I think about what's ahead, but for the first time, I'm not afraid. This is my story, and I'm ready to write the first chapter myself.
