JUNIOR YEAR: CHECK

WE DID IT.
ITS OVER.
THE DEED IS DONE.
THE NOTORIOUS BEAST KNOWN AS "JUNIOR-YEAR" HAS BEEN SLAIN!
the only thing we knew about it going in was what we heard from the agonizing complaints of our older siblings and the whispered warnings of teachers since 6th grade.
"just wait till your junior year" they said, "it'll get ya" they said.
but here i stand, maybe not quite as sane, but yet, here i stand.
so sorry about my majestic bragging of conquering what is said to be the "hardest year of school", but let's just say i'm really pumped to be done.
to be done with physics tests written in foreign languages and
hours of homework every night and
waiting for ACT scores and
the constant battle of finding a parking spot.

but then again, as i take full advantage of dm-ing cute senior boys for their graduation announcements (i only did it once and we were homies, k) , i can't help but think how different things are going to be next year!! all the little teenage-girl emotions in me start to act up and pretty soon i'm stuck in "bittersweet" mode. well heck yeah i want summer, but how am i supposed to get through school next year without senior friends who will pay for my lunch and give me good advice!?!
and then as i sign my numerous secret crushes yearbooks, it suddenly dawns on me that
 I WILL NEVER SEE THESE PEOPLE AGAIN. THIS IS IT.
and because of my insane summer, even the days with my close senior friends are numbered.
i didn't flinch when the doctor put an IV in me and i can sit through a horror movie like a champ, but change is scary. it makes me feel like i have my life together when i have go-to people that i can, well, go to. but when those go-to people up and leave to do adulty things like college and missions and what not, it kinda uproots me for a minute. every time i think about it i get this intense sinking feeling in my chest and pretty sure it's going to turn into a black hole or something if i don't get a cotton candy slushy soon!
maybe i'm overreacting, but a lot of my friends are going on missions and the next time i see them they'll probably be fresh RM's speaking broken english and wearing cargo shorts and BYU swag!!
tear.
tear.
tear.
its tragic, really.
maybe next year i'll meet some gullible sophomores who think i'm cool (cause i'm a senior and apparently that's a big deal) to fill the hole.
although, i've always been better at making playlists then i've been at making friends so maybe i'll just stick to that.
sorry i'm getting side tracked, the point of this post was that
junior year is over so that is cool but all the seniors are leaving so that is not cool!!!

have a great summer my friends,
unless you wrote "HAGS" in my yearbook...that is so hideous why would you do that?
ily anyway,
kp
