school's out...FOREVER!!
lol. i wish it was forever. but...to be honest, i'm kind of excited about the whole college experience. it's going to be a drastic change (hopefully) from the life i'm leading now, and yet at the same time, i'm hoping that it doesn't change too much. because i'm kinda happy right now...
i have to say that senior year has definitely been the best year of high school. yes, i didn't get out much, didn't do the whole coffee time, out until the wee hours, screw homework, going to council crest thing, but..i got out. kinda. =P well, at least i wasn't always at home when i wasn't at school. i had my library thing (oh god, the most wonderful 2 hour break from reality EVER), my hospital thing (something i did for me. and me alone. and it felt GOOD.)...my conniving, sneaky ways of getting out for "IB"/"studying" things, when they weren't really. or even, just stupid little group projects where we all got together to get work done. and didn't actually. OR. even better, got stuff done and had fun during the process. haha. dorky, i know. but hell. writing that script was a blast. and sending out the emails afterwards was amazing. granted, the script changed...(for the better), but still. i shall always remember the awkwardness that was never present between daniel and i, until that ONE moment in english class. *sigh*...
i'm kind all over the place tonight. today...is significant. to be totally cliche, if you had told me a year ago today that my life would be the way it is..i wouldn't have believed it. me going to school in-state. me in love. the friends i've grown closer to, or ... worse, grown further from. if i sit and think about it for a while, it becomes overwhelming. how, if this much changed over this past year and all my friends were still around me...just around the corner...what's it gonna be like this time next year? after we've all been to our different parts of the states? or, to include the few going out of the country, to our different parts of the world?
i wish everyone the adventure that we are all entitled to. it's college! yet another cliche, but totally true. another step that we have to take in our lives.
i don't know how to eloquently put any of this. i just...after all of the things that each of us have been through and all of the shit and crap that we've all put up with..no regrets guys. if i'm leaving behind high school without regrets...don't let yourselves do so. it's been a great four years, however we spent it. and i choose to remember the many days i could never stop laughing. when people gave me looks as i walked down the hallways because...well, let's face it. i seriously was acting like i was high on something. the days when silent, heartfelt smiles were spread all around (oh man. i'm being SOOO cliche). the hugs. sitting together silently while emotions were high. the silly greetings and (yes, zeb, i actually enjoyed them) the hair rubbing. the appearances of cameras all around, seeing emily just silently pull out her camera as she sneakily caught someone in a quite appealing...position? (that came out so wrong.) motion? (that's worse.)
i don't know where i was going with this...hmm...something along the lines of we did it guys! and... there's still WEEEEEEEKS left of freedom, of friends, of...whatever we want to make of it. let's make it something great, eh? =D
