is it bad?

May 12, 2007 01:08


     My life is about to change forever.  I'm leaving everything familiar, everything comfortable, everything sane.  I'm leaving behind everything that I know.  And to say that I'm scared doesn't even begin to crack the ice.  I'm petrified.  I'm going someplace where I don't know many people, and where my only source of comfort is God.  It's so hard to believe that I'm actually going to be getting out of this black hole town, but strangely, I don't want to leave.  I know that this is something that I need to go through with, but I'm still so afraid.  I'm going to be completely exposed.  I'll have no good friend to lean on, no strong arm to pick me up, no shoulder to cry on.  At least not one that I have right now.  The true friends I have will be my friends forever.  But now is the true time when friend and foe are sorted out.  Now is the time when the mettle of my comrads will be tested. 
      Will I be able to make it?  Will I survive?  Or will the pressure prove to much and leave me as coal instead of a diamond?  I feel like I'm cracking up.  I feel as if I'm breaking down.
     why is college such a frightening thing?
