Well, it's here, the final week of summer. I'm really not dreading it being over, nor am I hoping it will last forever. Truth is, i like school, it gives me something to do and I like learning. I like where I go to school, I like the people I've surrounded myself with, and overall it's not bad.
This summer I've had very busy weeks, where I don't have much time to sit around, and other weeks that's all I've done. I've also realized this summer/last school year who I really do trust, and want to be around. It's been good for me to distance myself from the band kids this summer, and just be able to do what I want on my time, not surrounded by people demanding that I do what they want. However, I'm looking forward to this year, I probably won't hang out with the same people I did last year, and I'm going to make sure it's a fun year. My schedule looks like it's bearable, and that some of the classes might even be fun(to bad I don't have a real history class this year.)
I've made some really great new friends this year, from all over, and for that I am grateful. However, I don't think I'll ever really have a Best Friend. And I've realized that's ok. I don't need to have someone to always hang out, I'm perfectly fine being by myself, and reading or scrapbooking or just sitting around watching tv.
This summer has been good for me, and I've gotten my priorities straight. Unlike most of my "friends" my parents won't pay for everything I want to do. I have to come up with the cash if I want to go hang out with people. My parents, therefore will not be paying my way through college, hence why I have a job. Honestly, I'm glad that's the way it is. I wouldn't appreciate anything if I didn't have to work for it.
So in turn, although I haven't done a lot this summer, it has been the best summer. I'm excited for this week to play out, and to see what's in store, but I'm also excited for school to start, and to see people I haven't been able to hang out with this summer.
