61
Think about that number. It seems like a pretty big number when you talk about how many pairs of shoes you own, or in comparison to the number 4. Now think of the number in terms of dollars or days. That makes the number 61 seem so small and insignificant.
For a while I have been saying that graduation seems so far away and I cannot wait. Today it hit me that having only 61 days left is startling. I have a short 61 days to live out anything I ever wanted to do in high school, to have the luxury of waking up and seeing the people I love. I have 61 days until I am no longer under the shelter of being a student. I know I do not really gain much responsibility by graduating, but it is just that feeling though. I have to wonder, am I ready? Have I done all that I wanted to do? I started out the year thinking, "oh, I'm going to be that girl who cry at every last...", then I changed and caught senioritis. Now, I'm back to dreading the idea of it all being over. There are people I cannot stand the idea of leaving. It is going to be so hard. I am excited for the future, but I just want to hold on a little bit longer. 61 days does not seem long enough to make the best of what I have left. But I will try to make the best of it.
