In less then 10 hours I start my senior year of high school. It's safe to say I am feeling a whole range of emotions. I'm excited to start, but also want to be done already. I'm looking forward to the memories, but I'm already wishing I could have had more. My high school experience is coming to a close, and my gosh did these past 3 years already go by fast. I feel ready to jump into college already (I've already applied and got accepted which is also wild), but I also don't feel nearly ready enough.
I have high hopes, but I'm also afraid of being let down. This is it. It's what everyone looks forward to. Senior year. The beginning of the end. Tomorrow marks my last first day of school, the last time I'll prep for the first day in my house. This time next year I'll be in college. I'm already looking past this year to the next, but I also want this year to slow down and be fully appreciated. I have a lot riding on this year, and I'm hoping it'll be a rebound from the past few years which we're rough to say the least. I guess my main goal is to look ahead, but also stay present. I still have a whole year's worth of memories to make, and I'm hoping they'll be good enough to last me a lifetime.
