But being accepted is an understatement...as I was even accepted into their Honors Program. So, if for some reason I don't end up going anywhere else, I still get great dorms, classes, and intellectual friends (at a great budget price). That letter completely shook my world.

And not so great news:

My grades are not awe-inspiring to me. The letter enhanced an attitude inside my mind that was lying dormant. That attitude consists of laziness, whining, and boredom and their relationship to school. Yes, I have senioritis now.

I know last time I said that I am still working, but just on whatever interests me. And recently, I have finally found out what senioritis is. It is an extremely advanced version of working on whatever interests me.

I honestly have this urge to skip the rest of the school year and spend it at home. I feel like counting down the days left until I graduate, but if I start on that trend like other people, I won't be able to withstand the time mentally. I have managed to resist most of these urges by using reality (like if I skip the rest of the school year, I won't be graduating anytime soon).

It is becoming a really strange life during senior year. My mood is continually wandering throughout a typical day, and when I get home, I don't even look at my homework until it is nighttime.

During that time I do many things, but one of them is reflecting on my daily life. I have become sick and tired of the many things I have forced myself to do. Things that I have finally discovered were really useless in the first place. One of the places my mind automatically jumps is to my extracurricular activities. There are a few clubs I wished I had never joined because quite honestly, they are a major waste of time. Unfortunately, because I am currently in the hierarchy, I can't discontinue my participation in them.

And I have also wanted to get more time with my family. Weird, huh? The average teen doesn't really want to hang around with their family as much as with their friends. But the thing is that I'll be going to college with little or no time to see the people who raised me and played with me since I was born. I want to be able to connect with them as much as I can because I understand how precious they are to me.

A lot of strange things are happening to me this month. And I'm sure there are plenty more to come.
