Why does it Feel so Weird?

Becoming a senior may feel like it’s the best thing ever. Well, to me, it feels awkward and weird at the same time. Being a junior, I didn’t realize how close I was to having to think about what I wanted to do in life until now. When you become a senior, you have to start thinking about what you really want to do in life and not just wait for the chance or opportunity. It doesn’t just come to you; you have to work for it.  

The awkward feeling is always there for some odd reason. It’s going to be very weird next year, being a senior. The feeling never leaves, and sometimes it drives me nuts. I’d honestly never expect myself to feel weird about being a senior, but I do. That weird feeling started creeping up on me sometime during the early part of the 4th quarter. A part of me says there’s no need to be nervous, but another part of me says I’m nervous. Senior year does seem like it’s fun, but to me, it’s nerve-racking, like it drives my nerves off the roof. It’s like going through a change that doesn’t seem as big as it is.  Hopefully senior year won’t kick my butt like junior year did.
