Senior?
I like being a senior. I mean..it's cool that I get like not much homework, and I get to know that finals are NOT coming at the end of the year..(sorry underclassmen.) But sometimes I really need to wonder if being a senior is so awesome.
I mean...for one, I totally didn't pick out the college I'm going to next year. I know it's a transition that everyone goes through, but I'm still kind of all laid back about the whole thing. I know that I am ready for college, and I will be ready to move away, but that doesn't really worry me. It's my maturity and getting ready for college in the process that kind of shocks me. Who knew it would be a process that would last almost the whole school year? What with applications, visitations, overnights, and scholarships, it can last almost to may. and I thought that I was done with college until my decision.
For another reason, I have a lot of underclassmen friends. I'm not going to be eager to leave them next year. At all. I'm going to miss them like crazy. I mean, most of my band group is freshmen and sophmores. I love them to death, they are the best friends that I've ever had. I'll be really sad to leave them, although I know it won't be the last time I see them or talk to them. :)
I'm just not sure about the whole senior thing. I know that by the end of the year, it's going to be awesome, getting out early, no finals, GRADUATING..(finally). But I guess since it's the middle of the year, I'm still trying to hold onto my high school years just a little longer. I want to be around for longer than I have. Time goes by all too fast in the world, if anyone has noticed. I want more time to hang out and be with my friends. More time to be a kid. But unfortunately, everyone must grow up at some point. Neverland isn't real, although I wish it was. If I could freeze time, I would freeze it right now, in my senior year. Because this was definitely the best year of all 4 in high school. I've had the most awesome memories and greatest friendships.
So I guess, I leave you with this thought. Seniors are just in transition. Not really ready to go into adulthood, but ready to graduate and go to college. So really, I am in a transition in my life. I find it to be one the most difficult and the easiest at the same time. I love my friends, and I love my family. And anything that you do makes my transition easier, for the most part.
I love all of you, and I can't wait for college, but at the same time, I can't ever leave. Although, being a senior is pretty challenging, I love it so much at the same time.
Thank you for all of your kindness, loyalty, and amazing friendships and memories that you've given to me and will continue to give to me.
