I still haven't decided...
Many things that I have read in my friends blogs or the advice I've gotten from my student directors and siblings have got me asking this question:
What kind of person do I want to be through my high school career?
Last year I was everything from a control freak class president, an opinionated and nosy best friend or just some girl that Jordan liked to have his arm around.
I didn't like any of them... I was just so confused. No matter what kind of person I thought I could or wanted to be never really worked.
You could say things are different now. I won't have to deal with the stresses I had last year.
I can cope without my best friend always by side and I can finally just sit back and look around. Now when I see my peers all I can think about is how their minds have been filled with so many delusions of what is most important to get out of high school. Parties, drinking, sex, and popularity. But, honestly, why should we even give a shit about all those things? Who decided and what right did they have to decide that these are the things that factor out your status in high school?
...I guess I have decided... I just want to be something more than what's expected of me, and not focus on everything that is less.
