Tomorrow, I will be starting my senior year of high school, and
I can't believe that I'm a senior already. It seems like just last week I was starting my freshman year of high school. And now I'm nine months from graduating. Where in the hell did the time go?
Adults always told me that high school would go by so fast that it would be over before I knew it. I never believed them, because when you're forced to spend every other day in detention for being too "rambunctious", high school seems like it will never end. But, like almost always, the adults were right.
I don't know why I'm freaking out about starting my senior year. I should be excited that my days of detention and dress codes are over. I mean, yes, I can't wait to go to college and be out in the "real world". I just need more time. More time to prepare for the "real world". More time to get to know myself. More time to find people who truly understand me. More time to just...be, without any major responsibilities. More time to figure out what in the hell I'm supposed to be doing with my life.
I seriously doubt that nine months will be all of the time that I need to figure everything out.
Even though I have all of these thoughts running through my head, I refuse to let them get me down. This is my last year of high school. I'm going to have as much fun as I can.
