Can't quite grasp this "Senior" thing


Sometimes I’m so caught up in the whirl of school work, college applications, managing clubs and sports that I often forget to take time and enjoy the fact that I’m a senior (even though it’s still a like a dream to me). It’s hard to think how much I must have changed from when I was an underclassman to an upperclassman. It’s even weirder for me when old friends, who graduated when I was an underclassman, comment on how much I’ve grown up, because in the end I still feel the same. Yeah, I might have gotten a bit older, maybe wiser, maybe a bit more thoughtful (might being the keyword here) but in the end I believe that I’m still the same person.  I still pull the push door in the arts center, I still mix up my left from my right and I still remember the first couple of lines from The Odyssey (I read this my Freshman year). Maybe when reality hits me and I acknowledge the fact that I am a senior, maybe then I’ll understand what everyone is talking about.

Back to college apps,

Amy
