This photograph was snapped in September. It had only been a month since returning to school after quarantine, and it was already time to take senior yearbook photos. Seniors have less than a month until graduation as I write this. Time has flown by faster than we expected, and we can do nothing about it. We have this idea that time is waiting for us, but we are chasing it in reality. All of these seniors-fellow classmates who pass in the halls will be gone, and we will all be moving up. It’s a simple image with multiple meanings for everyone, but to me, it’s a clock. A clock that ticks and notifies us when it is our turn.
