I like college because I can make my own choices and be the person I want to be, without being stuck to people I’ve known all my life. I can pick and choose my friends and if I don’t like the ones I make, leaving is just as easy. And trust me, there are a couple snot-nosed bitches I just don’t like at first impressions and I’m gone. Why go through all the trouble? I’ve learned it’s not worth sweating over. Mama said those people exist just to bring me down. She’s psychic and shit, so I have to at least listen to her on that.
I miss Nikki like hell, just texting and calling really isn’t enough. I rarely get to talk to kai anymore, but those are things I need to fix on my own.. Too much Mack time? Yeah, too much. Still need to figure out a tattoo that I want to share with him. And my mama - if she’ll do it. She’d probably like hearts or something like choo choo, which is kinda gay to be honest.
One thing I do love about this place is that Nobody is stupid here (with the exception of athletes, but at least they are talented). Everyone does their fair share of work and no matter how competitive it gets, I know I’m going to school with hard workers and not pitiful slackers. People here are destined for great things - things I can’t even imagine accomplishing. By there are also the deprived that have no life experiences and no jobs…
And though annoyed, I’m glad my parents can have something about me they want to brag about. They never bragged about me ever, even though I worked so hard for their pride. I don’t even think they know I’m on the hall of fame at my high school.
It was only a few months ago, but I feel so free and independent. I was so lost in high school, which is weird because unlike many others I knew what I want and I go get it. But that’s just me, I already found my purpose in life - to save the world, right? I have passions and dreams. Goals drive me.
So I can’t understand how’d you live without them.
I can’t understand why people would settle for anything less than number one.
I can’t understand. And I guess that’s okay.
