Applause for the Wallflower

So we're in the library at school because our air conditioning is broken in the building. It sucks, but whatever... I'm not complaining; I have access to the internet and free time while the seniors take their final.

I can't believe it's the seniors' last day of school. At about 10:45 this morning, almost an hour from this moment, I'm going to officially be an Upperclassman. It's funny that the year I'm going into now is the year I met all the graduating seniors at...where they were when I was a freshman. That was only last year, but that's exactly my point. Their "only last year" is going to be my "next year." And in one year, my now "next year" is going to be my "only last year." Does that even make sense? Well it does in my head. I feel like it all goes by so quickly. The realization that I'm finally about to start the last half of my battle out of here.

But on the same hand, this time here can't go by any slower. I was talking to Winona about it yesterday, but the fact that the two of us are dating people either graduating or already out of high school makes us feel like we should be at the same place as them in our lives...but the fact of the matter is that we're not. We're still stuck here at humble old Flanagan High School. It's like we should be moving on with our lives, not getting ready to go to our next-to-pointless English II Honors class for third period.

In any case, tomorrow I'll wake up at 6 o'clock in the morning. I'll get out of bed and take my shower. I'll get dressed and comb my hair. I'll ready my bag for school and walk down the stairs. I'll eat breakfast and watch some TV before I leave. I'll walk out the door and get in the car, and then I'll get to school and continue with my every day schedule. 8 more days and counting.

So new subject. We have our second to last icebreaker today. I'm kind of excited to tell you the truth. It's the first icebreaker we're having since they announced the new leadership for the guard, so I'm wondering whether they mention it our not...not that it matters. I'm just excited to finally be at the front of stretch block, especially at the beginning of the year. I don't have to look through every nook and cranny to watch the choreography Matt teaches :) lol

Next year's going to be interesting. Especially with a certain someone coming back to tech the flags. We'll see how it goes.
