The title of this post gives off a kind of negative connotation towards how I perceive my high school life, but don't be mistaken. High school was a fucking blast. I made lifelong friends (technically in elementary, but you get the point), gained so much knowledge (from teachers yes, but not on the subjects they teach), and made incredible memories (HELL YES!).
But if there's anything I truly learned from high school it's that there's just this whole other world outside of the tiny town of Eagle Rock that I live in. There's just so much more I need to learn and experience and I want to do it already. I want to hop on the next plane to whatever city/country American Airlines will take me.
I've heard time and time again, "Don't be in such a hurry to grow up," and while I can already bet come June I'll be crying buckets about how it really is over, I can't help but get sick of this daily routine of attending pointless classes (FUCKING PSYCH), being surrounded by kids who I'm pretty sure have about 5% ambition (This obviously doesn't go for everyone, just a select few who don't know JACKSHIT), and repeat.
I think maybe it's because I have so many interests I want to consider when it comes to choosing my major for college that I'm so eager to try all the options I have that I feel this way. But yeah, this is pretty much what I've think about lately. What's going to happen in a couple months I guess. And so in approximately five months and ten days I'll be walking the at Oxy. The chapter of high school and Part One of my book will come to an end and Part Two and The College Years (Saved by the Bell!) will begin.
I already know I'm going to regret ever saying "I'm so over high school" because despite it being a measly four years of my life, they were a pretty damn good four years. So for now all I can hope for is a good next few months because I know it's all gonna happen in a blink of an eye.
