How Far Away is Graduation?


42 days.

     Yeah, that's right... forty-two days until I'm done with my high school career... forever. Honestly, I'm not too upset about it, but I also kind of feel like I'm losing a little part of me. I mean, think about it: I've been going to school for the last (almost) 13 years. I've known nothing else than to get up at 6:30 and get ready for school on weekdays and, heck, I can barely remember my life before school. Maybe I'm just nervous because this routine, the one constant in my life (besides family of course), won't be there anymore.
     I know I'll be ok and I think I'll adapt just fine, but sometimes I have little doubts. I think about being two hours from home, about friends I may or may not make and basically hoping that I can get to class on time (my residence halls will be a mile and a half from my first class...ah!). Then I remind myself that it's only two hours, not across the country; that all the freshmen will be in the same boat and it'll be easy to make friends, and that a 1.5 mi isn't that bad when you can ride the bus for free.

     Anyway... that was my little stress release for the week. I finished my biology exam on Monday and have felt burnt out ever since (and I stil have backwork I need to finish!!), and I'm going to my third track meet of the week tonight... oh I can't WAIT for the weekend!
