Lions in Cages Just for Fun

On one of my first days back at school, Julianne and I opted to ignore the discussion in APES (which is now reflecting in our embarrassingly low averages in that awful class) and instead we made a list of all the things we have to look forward to as second semester seniors. And as I have been brainstorming ideas for the senior page in the yearbook, this list came to mind and I thought I'd share it with you all. It should give you a nice little preview of what you'll be seeing on my blog over the course of these next few months. So, without further ado...

1) Senior Girls - cross that one off!

2) The absence of economics

3) Freshmen Young Life Retreat

4) My 18th birthday

5) Rodeo season

6) Grad Parties

7) Hearing back from colleges

8) Spring Break Mexico Senior Trip

9) Yearbook distribution

10) Senior issue of The Anvil

11) Senior Speeches

12) Cheer tryouts

13) Visiting Texas

14) Junior Girls

15) Prom

16) Fine Arts Banquet

17) Late Arrival

Oh... and GRADUATING!

I'm gonna steal something from Lana's blog that I found especially thought-provoking.

It's odd to think about how in 8 months, I won't be living here anymore. Well... it's odd, but it also kind of makes sense. I feel like everything that we've worked for and pushed for and talked about it is... here. Finally. Oddly. The final semester, the last few months, so densely packed with moments of reflection and pangs of sadness and waves of relief. Ha. We're all going to be emotional wrecks by the end of this one. So, here's to that. To the real, official beginning of The End. The moment we've all been waiting for.

I couldn't have said it better myself, Lan.
