Senior Year

Senior year is almost over! I can't even believe it! Nine more school days filled with projects, homework, dissections, and lots of planning! All of this means that although I do have new free periods (gymnastics is over for the year), I can't spend them sleeping or even chilling in the library. Unless "chilling" suddenly involves working on that never ending list of details. Most of these details seem to involve spending money that I don't want to spend. yeah. there's a reason money is the most popular graduation gift. the starving college student thing starts early. Oh well, it'll be worth it. Thanks to Justin, I'm not stressed out. During the preparations for Senior Recognition he taught me to just relax and focus on the big picture. Details are nice, but not worth stressing about most of the time. Although our class has been rather screwed over (thanks a lot class of 2010) we have managed to have a decent year. the school wide drama hasn't helped much though. Between the end of many old traditions, lots of new rules (Seniors 2010) and the dismissal of a dearly loved teacher and coach, it's been a rough one. I guess that just builds character though, right? Anyway, after a crazy weekend full of boiled frogs (they jumped into the hotsprings and died), dead snakes (near the hotspring), crazy adventures in the "wilderness" with Michelle, and an exhausting last gymnastics performance, I am back at school trying to deal with the mixed emotions of a quickly nearing graduation. Facebook is full of posts regarding various graduations. It's all rather overwhelming. My highschool years have flown by. Anyway, I'm off to grade a pile of papers and then attend to my seniorly duties. More blogs to come as I struggle to focus on the "to do" list.
