I close my eyes and listen to the sounds:
Whispering, laughing, pages of textbooks turning,
Someone typing on a laptop, eating a sandwich,
Some girl rap-singing the same line over and over again
“Positivity is the key to life’s lock. Positivity is key. Put that on repeat.”
So I had this sudden dawning realization that in exactly 2 years from now I'm going to college. TWO.YEARS. There's so much I have to do this year it's insane. To most teens college is a scary part of life where you're parents kick you out and tell you to face the world on you're own. To me college is freedom, happiness, the soon to be greatest days of my life. Don't get me wrong I love my friends and family, but everyone tends to get over bearing to me and sometimes I just yearn for the day i get to move away. Far away to a distant place, a magical place full of rainbows and unicorns. (Just kidding) But really when I go to college I'll finally be able to experience the life i never was able to. My experimental years (Not smoking drinking and stuff like that i'm not stupid). But just socializing and hanging out in general. Regardless of my html my life isn't really that strict there are just a lot of barriers. I guess what I'm trying to say is that when I go to college I'll finally be able to breathe. To take a breathe without manners, serving everyone else, priorities, responsibility and worst of all religion being shoved down my throat. I can take a breathe and find myself, find the person I never thought I was. Discover new aspects of myself, search for my purpose in life and figure out what i want to do with it. No college isn't meant to be feared, its meant to be embraced. I can't wait to take on the world head first and just discover me.
