Really I'm 21 going on 22, but as that isn't a song (yet), I have to stick with this song. See, the song captures being on the verge of something, which I am. I'm actually on the verge of A LOT of things. Junior year is consuming my soul. I have craptons of work every week. You know, as a freshman you think, Oh, I will never get my work done, but you always do. But as a junior, you think the same and you are correct in your thinking. The work is never done and don't follow my example, but I just take it one day at a time and pretend like I don't have twenty-seven assignments due before Wednesday. I also do the easy stuff first. I'm becoming a regular slacker. But I still get by and that, my friends, is what counts. I wouldn't be a slacker if I didn't have 800 things to do like working for Tom's Shoes, planning Hutchapalooza, directing my play, and trying to maintain a decent social life. But even though all of these things are consuming me, I'm just letting it roll off my back because I'm on the verge of becoming both a senior and a prefect! I'm very excited to be a senior because that means two things A. As I was a studious student all three previous years, I only have to take four classes/semester next year! and B. I'm almost done. Not with the year, but with my entire college career. It's almost too scary to verbalize. I'm also excited to be a prefect. I know it's going to be a lot of work, but I'm for the challenge. 8)
