Getting old[er]

It's the last day of the last full week of regular [non-exam] classes tomorrow! Then it's off to grade 12. I find this a horribly disturbing thought. It's not the growing up and having to pay bills, or drive [although I did have a huge issue with driving when I was younger because I didn't want the responsibility of keys...], or getting a job, or any of those type of things. The thing that scares me most is leaving my three best friends! Of course we plan on remaining friends, but I want to go to UBC, Pan wants to go halfway around the world! And I'm not sure about the other two...I'm not sure if they're even sure! Anyway, it also doesn't help that I graduate a year earlier than them. It's a scary thing to get older. You know how your parents say things like "Oh, that was my high school best friend"? Well I don't want to have to say that! I want to be able to say "Auntie _____ and I have been friend since we were 14!" That sounds much better to me. What are/were your biggest fears about growing up?
