Revelation at 17
This has been a weird week for me. O_o I mean seriously. I turned seventeen on Monday, and this entire week, I've been more focused, more organized, my time has been better managed, and I'm feeling good.
That almost never happens.
But seriously, ever since Monday, I've become more... aware of everything. I'm looking forward more, I'm actually enjoying the work I'm doing, I'm getting a stronger sense of national and personal identity, I'm speculating about the future, I'm making a sure that the friends I'm with are worth my time (LOVE YOU ANGIE, GRACE!!), I'm getting my school work done, I'm happy with the world, and things are going to be great.
...
Just had a long conversation with my dad about a whole slew of topics ranging from my courses for my senior year of High School to our Spring Break trip to Europe and about my college career of choice: PHD/MD Researcher preferably in a field that will actually have some tangible results, one that'll make me feel good when I go to sleep at night. Personally, I don't care what political affiliation is or what you think about the general problems with the world, the future is going to be bright and good.
1. English 4 (Dante's Inferno, yay!!)
2. AP Calculus AB
3. Honors Physics
4. Introduction to Philosophy
5. Government
6. Economics
7. Advanced Studio Art
8. Advanced Painting
9. Spanish 3
(Hopefully my friends and I will have more than one class together. :D )
