Where is GSS when you need him
He got married. They have one kid with one on the way. His parents retired and moved to Florida to a condo GSS bought for them. He quit skiing so he can grow the family business and spend more time with his family. He’s no longer the narcissistic attention horror wanttobe party boy he once was. Any free time he has he devotes to helping the people he met in AA, NA and SA. He has become a completely selfless man who puts the needs of everyone else in his life above his own.

BTW...He also lost 50 lbs. and is now the picture of health and fitness.
 tooo funny!....except the thought gss reproducing made me throw up a little in my mouth. you guys should come visit him on paskiandride once in awhile!

Maybe, but some things are better as a memory…he might be one of those.

This is your quote, its perfect.  I guarantee people will ask you about it.

I use to be a high school teacher so I’ve read a lot of senior quotes.

Kids usually go 1 of 3 ways:

They copy something they’re read that they see as upbeat and inspirational. I think most readers find them very unoriginal and blah…blah…blah…it’s been done before.

Some kids like to call attention to what they think makes them special… an athlete might reference a quote from a legendary coach for example. The older we get the more we realize that except for those who love us we’re not very special at all. The mass majority of us are very ordinary.

The "Fight the Power" types will always have to write something negative or nasty. Like, “Those who can do, while those who can’t teach.” They’re trying to give one last shot at someone or something, but in the end they just embarrass themselves.

So anyway IMO, “This was all super helpful!! Thanks!”,  is perfect in its simplicity. Please let us know what you choose. Good Luck and enjoy your senior year.

I agree. That was fantastic.

But, if you're looking for a actual answer from me, I'd turn to the movie Aspen Extreme and go with the quote:

"Skiing's the easy part, Karl."
