Graduation

I'm graduating from high school in 2 days... And the thought totally freaks me out.  Am I really ready for the 'real world'? I've spent my entire life in Christian schooling, I'm graduating with most of the same people I graduated elementary with.  The world used to seem so small and safe when I was in high school and now it just seems too large and scary.  I'm freaked out about university, and even more so for what comes after that.  I'm only seventeen and life just seems to be moving to fast.  How am I supposed to support myself? I want to be a writer but what if no one likes my writing? I'm going to miss my dysfunctional class of crazy teenagers, my school teachers who cared about my success and understood my procrastination skills, I'll even miss my bus rides to and from school.  I just want to freeze time and stay in this moment forever, this is where I'm comfortable, this is where I want to stay; but I can't.  I'm scared and I just want to run away.
