Have you ever thought about it? Every move you make, every test you take, every homework assignment. Every assessment, every grade, everything counts. All of the grades you get in your classes get put on a transcript. Every academic decision that you make influences where you will end up after you graduate.
I want to go to college. A university. I am getting out of the town that I live in. I'm going to U Dub, moving to Seattle, and I am not coming back. That's the problem with so many people where I live. This town is like a vortex. It sucks people back in, even if they try to escape. They might move away, but then they'll move back. I'm not doing that. I want my life, or the rest of it after I graduate high school, to be in Seattle.
That may sound like I'm thinking way too far ahead, but that's the reality of high school. Planning ahead. Trying to figure out what you want to do with your life. Speaking of which, I have a pretty good idea of what I want to do when I grow up. But then, do you ever have that moment when you think of another idea. It's a smack in the face. A curve ball that makes you re-think your plans. Maybe I can find a happy medium. I hope.
