Going into senior year, my goal has been to stop thinking ahead. Have I accomplished this? Well, I closed my first show as a senior last Sunday which is absolutely bonkers.

As I have come back to school for my final year, I have been distracting myself with these rehearsals and performances. Now that it’s over, I realize how much I have not processed about starting my final year and how terrified I am to no longer feel that fulfillment. And wow, has that realization been more than overwhelming.
