Shocker.
Why is it that whenever we are to begin the next thing, regardless of what it is, we feel the need to start writing about it, or talking about it, or hell, we feel the need to even mention it: the big next thing is coming. For me. And for thousands of other fresh out of high school kids across the country, and across the world. For a kid.. well, young adult, of my I don't know.. class, I guess but that doesn't seem like quite the right word.. going off to school is just the next step in my already planned out life.
be born.
go to 12 years of school.
go to college.
get a job.
live life.
die.
Sounds fun.
Anyway, I guess my point is, that although for someone like me, this is really no big deal, for me.. IT'S A BIG DEAL.
I'm leaving. I'm gone. From everything & everyone I've ever known and loved in Memphis. That may seem a bit dramatic considering I have friends going to school with me and family there and I'll only be a few hours away, BUT STILL.
I don't quite know if I'm ready to leave just yet. I think I am. I hope I am.
I guess we'll just have to see.
Well, then this is it, I guess. The story of the rest of the summer before the rest of my life.
How thrilling.
