One of TV's favorite schoolgirls is suffering some growing pains, and so is her real-life counterpart, 16-year-old Jamie Lynn Spears.
"Zoey 101" wraps up its season Friday as one of the Nickelodeon's top-rated shows with a cliffhanger.
If Zoey stays stateside, she may finally learn that best friend Chase (Sean Flynn) has had a serious case of puppy love for her since that day three years ago when she arrived on campus and he was so smitten he rode his bicycle straight into a pole.
CNN interviewed Spears about her exit from the series.
"I don't know. I don't know," Spears says from her home in Kentwood, Louisiana.
"Something definitely happens," she finally concedes. "But I guess you'll just have to wait and see what comes of it all."
"I'm going to try to graduate before I do anything else," she says of taking on another TV series or future film roles after "Zoey 101" ends.
She says she has no plans to follow sister Britney to California.
"No! Never will," Spears says, laughing at the idea of living in Los Angeles.
After the baby and graduating high school, her goal is attending Louisiana State University.
"I haven't thought anything about what I might study," she says. "I'll have to look more into that. But if I went anywhere, I think it would be fun to go to LSU."
When she was 11 she talked about following her sister into music, but she's not so sure now.
"I don't know. You know?" she says of her future. "It's all kind of open to whatever I feel like doing, I guess. Or whatever comes my way. I guess it will all fall into place."

Now I don't want to be a hater y'all but if this young lady enrolls in (matriculates for you edyamacated folks) and graduates from an a real live four-year university I'll shave my buttocks and walk backwards naked on the last day of classes across the quad.
Other things that have any equal probability of occuring:
1. Justin actually brings sexy back.
2. Britney marries Rosie.
3. George Bush teaches a class on warfare and economics at Harvard.
4. Sledding in Miami in May.
5. Jodie Foster confesses her love for Dick Cheney.
6. Scientists prove the ozone wasn't ever really there to begin with.
7. Barney and the Grimace from McDonalds are revealed to be the same person.
8. Bill & Hillary release a sex tape of ...themselves.
9. OPEC countries, embarassed by Joe Kennedy, decide that they have enough money and give the oil away.
10. Instead of searching for Osama bin Ladin, the FBI decides to ramp-up the search for DB Cooper.
