Today makes it official: exactly one month until school begins again. In one month I will be heading into my junior year, the second half of my high school career. In one month my sister will be starting her senior year of high school. In one month my brother will begin his final year of elementary school.
As of yet, I'm unsure how I feel about this. Nothing really awesome or spectacular has happened this summer (except that one thing I'm not telling anybody until I know for sure if it's awesome or spectacular), so part of me feels ready for that one month to zoom on by. School is still...school, but at least something will be happening. Another good thing about the school year starting? The return of T.V. shows! Yes, I'm talking to you, "Grey's Anatomy".
However, there's another part of me that wants this last month to move at glacial pace. I'll miss sleeping in and hanging out come August, and I know for a fact I'll feel that gnawing nostalgia for the previous year that I always feel at the start of a new school year. Only this year it'll be much worse. My sophomore year was probably one of the best years of school I've had. I had a lot of laugh and a lot of life changes, and I'm certain I'll want to feel it all again. People who I was close with won't be coming back, and I'll miss them. It'll be a rocky first few weeks.
But despite all that, I'm gonna go in positive. I have a good feeling about what's ahead for me in this next month. In a month things could be totally different. I'm acutally HOPING things will be totally different. Hopefully I'll have a (good) update on that awesome or spectacular thing I'm dying to tell people about.
Bring it on, August 17th. By then, in one month's time, I think I'll be ready for you.
