The Quiet City


Only three more days until I pack up for another few weeks in a distant land.

I'm really excited and fearful to get back. On the one hand, I have two of the coolest people I have ever met to spend time with before one of them goes of to college. Yet, on the other, I don't even speak to 98% of the people I know in that place, burning a lot of bridges and holding many grudges will do that to you.

Hopefully it will be a good trip, full of three o'clock in the morning adventures into the seedy underbelly of the town.

I'm really worried about when I get back because I have to do that ACT redo that I was supposed to do at the beginning of the Summer but missed due to going to the wrong testing center. Then I have to send in applications and narrow down my four college choices to one. My roster is currently down to The University of Central Missouri, University of Nebraska, University of Kansas, and OU.

I'm looking to come out of one of these four with a degree in philosophy, one can only hope. I'm also looking for the other typical things everyone who is about to start college looks for: parties, new experiences, new people... etc...

This is going to be a hard next few months because of me being lax at the end of Highschool and deciding not to fill out applications. But hopefully my ACT will be good enough to possibly get a full ride, which would be awesome.

I need to shower now...
