The end of the school year is fast approaching, much to do with maintaining my grades for the year and studying for finals, but today was senior check-out. I'll miss those kids to an extent, but I know they're leaving us behind for something much better than this petty, insignificant experience.
But today, I am officially a senior in high school. Officially, I have one year left of high school. Officially, one year from now, I'll know exactly where and how I'm going to college. I'll be an adult. I'll finally have what I've been craving for so long: freedom. Freedom from drama, freedom from being treated as a child, freedom from feeling trapped. I'll no longer have to pretend to like certain people, or really pretend at all. All the choices are my own, for me and no one else. It's just me.
The countdown has begun, all part of senior power.
Oh and also: "Go home, freshmen!"
