so, up to this point this "blog" has pretty much been a bunch of random pieces of writing and rants about unimportant things. now i am using this "blog" to document my transition between the life that i know now and the life that is about to begin. in exactly 8 days i will be 10 hours away from everything i have ever known, moving into a small, generic space with people i have never even laid eyes on before. i will be going to college. high school has officially ended. it's time for me to grow up. the problem is, i really don't want to grow up. everything i have now is so great. i love my family and my friends. my sister and i are super close and now i have to leave her.
The school i will be attending in 8 days is huge, 32,000 students. coming from a small high school, less than 500 students, this new world is slightly daunting. i have all the worries and fears that any soon-to-be freshman in college would have. i hope my roommate is not too weird. i hope i can make friends. i hope i can find my classes. i hope i can handle the workload. i hope nothing so traumatizing that i will never recover happens. in general i am simply afraid of being alone, without my family or bestest friends to lean on or ask for help. of course i can call them, skype them, chat with them on facebook, but you know as well as i do, that it won't be the same.
i am sad to leave and it's all coming so fast. but underneath all the fear and sadness about leaving, there is a certain amount of excitement. this is a new and exciting adventure. who knows what will happen next?
