So it has been like two months since I last updated. Oops. Where to begin? So much has happened yet none of it seems significant. So I will say as much as I want to and you can decide. But don't tell me what you think is significant because frankly, I don't care.
School. I cannot wait to graduate. I honestly did not know that I had such acute senioritis until my photo teacher said something to me and I told him I didn't care. Because I really don't. I'm just there for the final moments of socialization before being amongst a totally new group of people and the learning that goes with it just happens to be the oppotunity cost I take. I cannot wait to go away and spread my wings without my parents breathing down my neck about how I have to clean my room. I don't want to clean my room. Leave me alone. Thanks.
Parents and brother: I think I went over this above. I'm sick of them. I love them, but I am so sick of them. I wish they would leave me alone to do mine own thing because I think I'm ready. Not having to call them when I go somewhere or change places or something, beautiful! Why don't they trust me enough to know that I can handle myself? I've made it this far without being arrested, 4 months of glorious independence before college will help shape me. Also, once I leave I cannot wait to be rid of my little brother. Like he's so immature. We fight all the time because he cannot handle himself like an adult. I know he's not an adult and neither I am, but he is just so immature. Even compared to some of the other freshmen I talk to on a regular basis.
COLLEGE! I went on a whirlwind college tour and I like Michigan, but I LOVED LOVED LOVED AND AM IN LOVE WITH the University of Illinois. I walked off the plane at O'Hare and I just felt good. Like I was at home and I belonged. I saw the campus and it was like, the perfect day to visit a campus for the first time. It was like 65 degrees out and they hadn't had warm weather in awhile and so everyone was out playing frisbee and having fun and looking like they loved life. I got my financial aid package today and there is going to have to beo something done about that. I'm not getting paid to go to college. At all. My father does not seem to support my decision, even though he says he does. He even went so far as to suggest I get my associate's degree. How much more offensive can you be? I plan to be a doctor. I was really mad that he even suggested that. Just to save money. No. I have spent my entire life doing things to save money and this is not going to be one of them. So what if I'm in debt up to my eyes. I'm going to be a doctor. I'm leaving for college on August 18th and they are making it really easy for me to not look back.
Prom? After a few embarassing and awkward proposals to potential dates, I will be attending the prom with the date of myself. I'm pretty srue I'm okay with it. I will have fun and make lots of happy prom memories. I have a dress. And I bought shoes today. Now all I need is jewlerly and some appointments and I'm good to go! And money from my parents. Because so far, I've paid everything myself. My dress was ridiculous. I cannot believe how much I spent. But I love it. Someday I will describe it. But not today. We're supposed to go camping after prom. But the jury is still out regarding my parents. They 'just don't know.' I'm sick of them not knowing. Figure it out.
I think that's all for now. I'd like there to be more, but I really cannot think of anything. I'll talk aobut work and all that encompasses later. But for now that's all I remember really.
