Dog Days

With a little more than a week left of Summer, I'm kind of nervous, as you might expect. And I'm not sure why. It's like this every year. I guess the feeling of dread from high school is still there. This could be part of it: I have three cousins who will be starting high school this year. I know they'll all do well academically, but it's high school. Everyone's always telling me not to be nervous, but that's like telling me not to breathe. I can't help but be nervous. Really.
