Eighteen.

So I'm legal now. I feel exactly the same (I'm still my nocturnal self, obviously) but something finally hit me. I'm not in high school anymore. It's so weird. I'm responsible for myself now, and I'm not a kid anymore.

The bells don't ring when class is over anymore, and you can't expect everyone at the table to be there at nutrition or lunch. The teachers aren't like the cool parents you never had, but your professors are complete strangers who don't care because they've got their own lives writing books or running private practices. Cops are no longer out to give truancy tickets to help you stay in school, so you need to find your own motivation to get to class.

I was looking through a few Flickrs, and I found pictures that made me really miss it all.

(Hope you guys don't mind me using 'em...)

So here's a goodbye, and an end to that bittersweet chapter.

And by the way, these don't even cover half of senior year.
