Last year, all my upperclassmen friends told me that fall of senior year would be the worst time in my life. I was pretty scared.

When I was growing up, I always thought that I was so old. No matter what my age was, it felt like my peers and I were more mature than we actually were. But there was always some grade above us that we looked up to. There was this threshold that we were dying to make. Once we passed that threshold, we set our sights on a new one. Now it’s senior year, and I’m itching for a new goal.

We've now entered the last quarter of the 2007-08 school year, and you can't help but hear all the seniors expressing their enthusiasm in nearly being done with high school.

I, on the other hand, have five more quarters to complete until the end of my high school career. Nonetheless, I'm extremely excited for what's to come.

Ah, yes. I have finally reached the pinnacle of the high school experience. It only took five long, long years.

From what I hear from the Class of ‘07 and the Fox network, senior year is nothing but nonstop fun, start to finish. And while there is still a very large amount of time left in the year (I think Joe Leigh has an exact countdown), it’s looking like that is probably not the case. It’s not that this year is so terrible per se, but it just seems like I’ve been through it all before.
