Well, it’s official: I’m smart. Or rather, I feel smart. Ever since Middle College my intelligence self-esteem has sky rocketed, almost to the point where I’ve begun downplaying my brains. I’ll sort of try to sound a little less articulate, or sort of stop being so on top of my homework, or not study quite so hard for a quiz, or sort of stop being so uptight when it comes to following rules, just to feel like less of a prude amongst the public schoolers. I need to stop doing that. Except for when it comes to being uptight about rules, I really need to take a chill pill in that regard.

I’ve made up my mind. Journalism it is. I just can’t picture myself doing anything else and being happy. Writing makes me happy, and therefore I should write. We’re dropping Geni off at college today. I’m going to cry.
