Everyone's a superhero.

It's almost surreal to think that in exactly six days from now I'm going to be graduating high school. You'd think that I would be more excited than I am. To be honest, I think I'm ready to embark on these new experiences, but I feel as though it's not really happening. I feel like I'm going to be at my high school with my friends next fall, talking about how badly we all want to leave. Because that's what we've been doing for the past four years, and now what? I'm not going to have all those familiar faces of friends and teachers, and I'm not going to know my way around. And what about my family? Sunday dinners at my grandmother's house won't be happening every week like they do now.

College is scary. I've never left home before. And I get along really well with my mom, and leaving her just feels so wrong. And I find myself feeling guilty, as though I'm abandoning her, even though she's the one that told me I had to go to college.

I guess I'm just apprehensive about this whole college business.
