"There are moments in our lives when we find ourselves at a crossroads. The choices we make in those moments can define the rest of our days."
"Hello, the name's Craig Scott. Uhh, Im 17 and im 18 on august 17th. So, I guess the whole point of these time capsule thing's are to say what our hope's and fear's are? Say what High School's really like. But I don't actually see the point. Becuase, everyone has a different persepctive of Highschool. To some, it's the best experience of life, other's the worst but to me, i think It's only the beginning.
"And, of course when faced with the unknown, most of us prefer to turn around and go back."
Im not gonna bother going into detail with my past, because some of my past is great. i could go on boasting about it for hours but Im not rem, so Im not gonna bother. Instead Im gonna tell you about the present. Well, when you watch this it'll be like what?... A decade ago?
"There are moments in our lives when we find ourselves at a crossroads."
So, Im not gonna lie and try and spin off that my life in highschool has been crap. Cuz it ain't, Im one of those 'popular' kid's, who everyone seem's to worship. Like, Freshman crush on you and follow you around. Yea, im on the basketball team, it don't mean a jerk. I have some great friends and some great enemies. Like we all do, Im just an anverage guy with some average teenage problems...
"But, once in a while, people push onto something better. Something found just beyond the pain of going it alone. And just beyond the bravery and courage it takes to let someone in."
So, i was dating this girl Haley. We first got together in Sophmore year, it was funny because I was a basketball kid and she was a tutor girl. It's like, two opposite world's collided. Sure, everyone took the piss at first but everyone accepted us. I guess that's what everyone's really looking for during highschool... acceptance.
"Or to give someone a second chance."
So after two year's, I ended thing's with Haley. But, the hard thing is, she will baerly talk to me. I mean, i love her as a friend and that's all I feel. What am i supposed to say to her? I love you will you marry me? I can't lie to her. I guess part of the reason i split with her was because of Rachel Stone. Sure, Rae and I dated back in Freshman year but it just was different then. We were Freshman and young and well weird! We ended it and I kinda regret not giving it another chance sooner. In 5 months, I proberly won't see her again until the reunion. There are many thing's I would like to say to her, but I just don't know how.
"Something beyond the quiet persistence of a dream."
I guess I'll tell yuo about my best friend Jeremy Efron or Jerry or Rem. The biggest ladie's man in Crystal Fall's. I grew up with the fella and sure he's my best friend, but I guess iI never felt I could trust him 100%. Especially now, I've ehard the rumors about him and Haley. Especially when Haley ahd this huge go at me... I mean, what the hell was that about? Im gonna let gheeto boy and tutor girl tell me before I ask them. I just wanna see how long it actually takes them to tell me.
"Because, it's only when you’re tested that you truly discover who you are."
"And, it's only when you're tested that you discover who you can be."
I guess my main hope for the future is to find true love. Because I think true love is the key to happiness. Hich SChool can never make you fully happy, that's a fact in my book. Not an opinion."
"The person you want to be does exist; somewhere on the other side of hard work and faith and belief. And, beyond the heartache and fear of what lies ahead."
"At this moment there are six billion, five hundred and two million, eight hundred and sixty seven thousand, one hundred and twenty people in the world, give or take a few and sometimes all you need is one. For better or for worse."
"Good Luck, the future Craig Scott, don't screw things up."
