Make up your mind!

May 15, 2004 20:09

You know what, I wish I were more decisive. I'm usually pretty easy going about situations, and I don't like being forced to make up my mind. But you know what? About this time next year, I'm going to know where I'm going to college for sure, and by next August, I'll be in college. And I have absolutely no idea where I want to go. I know some places I don't want to go to, mainly because they are either too small or because the people entering have crappy GPAs. And there are some colleges I know I could never get into because they are just so super competitive. And I don't think I would really want to go to a school like Harvard or Yale, just because I don't know if I would like the whole atmosphere of it. I'm a pretty down-to-earth person, and I don't know if I would really like that whole "Hey. I'm at one of the most competitive schools in the country" atmosphere. And I hate cold weather. But I really don't know where I want to go. I mean I have good enough grades and everything to basically get into the colleges I've been looking at, at least I think so, but I don't know where. I have to visit colleges really soon because time is already running out. But choosing is going to be hell next year. That's why I think it would be better if I had a clear picture of what I wanted to do. Like Jennifer. You know where you want to go and exactly what you want to major in and everything. I'm the exact opposite. My idea of what I want to major in and where I want to go changes every day. And it kinds of annoys me. I like my life to have structure, and I like to have at least some idea of what I'm going to do. Ah well, I guess I best get through the rest of this year. Things will all work out well in the end. They have a funny way of doing that.
In other news, with the exception of the Europe trip and Prom, I think junior year has been my least favorite year. I've been so bogged down with everything, and that's not fun. Although, I did get to know people better than I did before, and I like that a lot. But 10th grade is still my favorite year. My classes were easy, and I was just really happy. I've been pretty happy this year too. Lots of good things have happened, and they kind of outweigh the bad stuff. But I've been the most stressed this year. But that's what AP classes do to you.
I don't know. Maybe this year wasn't so bad. When I get the chance, I'll do a junior year in review post.
