School

Well, today was the first day of school. I went to Ren Fest yesterday, then didn't sleep all last night. I haven't slept in over 48 hours, sadly. But today went reletively well. I wasn't tardy for a single class, didn't miss the bus, and didn't go into any wrong class rooms! I'm a paranoid freak at times. lol. And even better. I made some new friends. Everyone liked my outfit, even the Hollister weirdos. (I was wearing a black pleated skirt, black tights, combat boots, purple peasant top, and was carrying around my black Jack Skeleton head bag.) Okay, so I sound like a nerdy middle schooler with this post. but I don't really care. There are few things that scare me more than the first day of school. Seriously, they terrify me! I generally don't care what people think or say. But I don't like to look stupid or unprepared for something. I take pride in my school work. It's taken alot to get where I am. I went from being the kid who thought being smart was for losers (elemetary school) to being the kid who doubted her abilites so did try (early middle school) to the girl who everyone goes to for help with their homework. And I'm proud of that. I want to prove to all the other kids out there, that it's not cool to flunk school. and you can be completely awesome, artistic, and (insert subculture or stereotype or teen label) and still be ridiculously smart!!! I'm the most original girl in my grade (95% of them are very conservative or preppy. The class of 2011 seems to be about fitting in), an animal activist, and Eco girl, an artist, a writer, etc, etc, and yet, despite all of this, I'm proud to say I'm taking 3 college courses this semester, and 2 next semster! (it's dual credit). and next year, when, hopefully, I'll have a car or money for the bus or something, I'll be taking even more classes at the community college.



yeah, okay, i forgot where I was going with that. please forgive me. did I mention I haven't slept in over 48 hours?
