2014 Wasn't As Far Away As I Imagined

Senior year is set to start in just about two weeks.

That's incredible.

To think that so many years of my life have passed by so quickly. How did that happen? I can't seem to fathom the idea that I may never see my friends again, that my life may never be the same again as I enter what is known as "adulthood." Senior year doesn't just mark the end of high school. It marks the end of one's childhood in a way. I may never be allowed to follow my mom around shopping malls and sing out loud in public places. I may never be allowed to dream and be "unrealistic" about the future. I may never be allowed to believe that anything is possible. Allowed being the key word. Because aren't those things frowned upon as one ages. Aren't we supposed to act mature and know what we're doing; have a realistic outlook on the world?

All I know is that I plan to make the best of this senior year. I'm convinced that I have the most amazing friends in the world. So I plan on the making most of the little time I have left with them. Not until last year did I become close to my friends. It kills me to think that my friendships may have an expiration date as life and distance takes over. I plan to make my greatest effort to keep those friendships alive as they mean so much to me.

College Applications, Friendships, Teachers, School Events, Incredibly Difficult Classes.
Let's see what this school year has in store for me.
