Life's like a box of chocolates, you never know what your gonna get.

So as sad as this is to say, but summer is finally winding down. Only a little under a month until we head back to school. Back to the same old life of me dealing with school, but before I speak of that, a anecdote.

So me and my parents went to this overpriced italian restaurant on south boulevard, and it came to a question I was surprised had not come before: Why I decided to lose weight in the first place? I know the main thing is to be healthy and all, or the new car I get if I lose enough weight. Or the fact that I want to be an actor and I want to look the part. I told them it was a secret, and it is the one secret that I hold in my life. My dad says he knows the reason but really no one will ever be able to guess. So don't ask, even though I did bring it up myself.

And now on to more pressing matters. So in beginning the hardest year of my high school career, I have decided to attempt the impossible, be in the top 4% of the class. I know this may seem like a big feat, there is no other choice for me. A spot at UCLA is right there being dangled in my face, and the only way to grab is to change my life. I know that sounds weird, but my new "image" or lifestyle change and my grades, with my audition, is going to break me out unto the scene. Now I know what if feels like to find you dream college. A school that leaves you open to many possibilites, right in the middle of Hollywood, the entertainment capital of the world. This year is going to define where I go to school, whether I am taken into UCLA. My life is going to be much more about not just grade but school in general, because they look at more than just grades and you audition to go into school. I feel as if being out and partying will be secondary, because there is all the time in the world for that when i finally make it in Hollywood.

So another thing I have begun to wonder, what will happen to us once we're all gone to college. Will any of us really remember the lives we had, or only move forward into brand new areas of my life.

So as most of us enter our junior year of high school, and some of us go into our final year of high school, I don't think I will be the same as when I walked into those doors as a lone freshmen waiting for something to happen.
