The school year has finally come to a close. And I am finally a free elf. Finally. After grueling years of high school education I am finally free. Now off to university...
This sounds so menial really. Like wahoo I finished high school. Whoopdee-freaking-doo. And honestly I feel the same way to a certain extent. Apparently, I'm still not a full formed person anyway. Just a kid heading off to college. That's all.
But let me put it to you this way:
For four years I have been dragged through the rocky mountains of public education and have lived to tell the tale. (More like barely survived to be honest...but whatever.) That's pretty impressive.
The words of Alice Cooper's "School's out" has never been filled with so much justice as it is now.
Freedom. Sweet blissful freedom.
But what the hell do I do with it?
I mean let's be honest I've never done this before. I went to college orientation and for dinner I ate a slice of pizza, strawberry yogurt with granola, fruit, and a cookie. I obviously don't know how to survive in the real world.
No more pencils. No more books. No more teachers, dirty looks.
This is true. I now have Macs, iBooks, Professors, and walks of same ahead of me.
In all honesty, I'm terrified. It's a great big world out there. And I'm just a little elf.
