Senior year is right around the corner, and I legit do not know how to feel.
I'm a senior.
I don't really feel as though there's stuff to do in order to prepare. The only "preparation" I could have done was get my license so I won't have to take the bus anymore, but I kind of failed at that. Right now is just a matter of trying to get a scholarship so I can go to school. And, of course, taking my senior photos.
Speaking of school, there's a possibility that I'm going to choose to graduate early, given the circumstances. I was going to stay for all 3 trimesters simply because I would be able to do independent study for broadcasting, but without my teacher, it just feels...void. So, instead, I feel it's more beneficial for me to start my college journey as soon as possible. If I can.
For a long while (pretty much since I was, like, 6,) I've always had this "romanticized" view of high school life. I've never watched the Teen Beach movies or High School musical when I was young. However, I was a Nickelodeon kid, and I always liked the way that they portrayed high school. It was like your senior year is the year to be a teenager. Writing this post and reflecting on that is making me realize that the shows I used to watch did not prepare me at all. They don't prepare you for the initial shock that this is (somewhat) over.
School has been a lot, for the past 12 years, and it's mind blowing to think I'm in my final round. I still have college, of course, but that in itself is a completely different experience - a completely different book - that I'm nervous to experience. My high school years is what shaped me, I guess. Entering high school is entering your teens. Entering college is entering your young adult years.
Either way, I’m still excited to be starting my senior year. I’ve worked too hard not to be.
