Identity Crisis pt. II

So another thing i've been thinking about lately. Well not really thinking about but a kind of reality that has hit me recently...people look up to me? Really? That is something that i never expected to tell the truth. For the longest time I never wanted anyone to look up to me. I'm not a role model, i'm not a saint, i haven't saved anyone's life, why would anyone look up to me?!? One of my roommates, Trevor (who takes awesome pics btw) recently said that he looked up to me when it comes to the relationship that i have with my girlfriend and that took me by surprise. I've never done this before...this is my first relationship and i'm trying not to screw up to royally and i'm a role model because of it? Another aspect that has taken a while for me to get used to is age. I'm one of the "older" people here both in school and age. I'm graduating next month :-O and not to many people here are above sophomore status and over 21 and that's weird for me. Most of the time I have been the younger or youngest person to do something and now to be an elder statesman of a group, I don't know how to react. People automatically look towards the elders just because they are elders...I still think i'm a youngin but maybe it's time to accept the role...i dunno just throwing the content of my mind out there..
