The night came toan end with the friends sitting aroundthe campfire reminiscing about theirpast four years. Being with all myfriends and making the best of ourremaining senior year will be some ofmy best memories, Hawkins said.Other members of the seniorclass spent their days outdoors, pickingup an extra shift at work, or binge-watching Netflix.
