On to NGCSU

Today was the last day of class for me at the infamous Gainesville State College. Finals are over, and I did pretty well. Now for the bad part: I have the summer off, but after that it’s on to North Georgia College and State University. Most seniors are ecstatic about this part of their lives that is about to begin, but why don’t I share their bliss?

I’ve attended GSC part time for the past two semesters, and while it has its perks I don’t feel that it’s going to be a blast. It’s going to be A LOT of hard work and that part doesn’t excite me too much. Also the whole distance thing, not only am I going away from my family, and all my highschool friends are going their seperate ways, but I’m going even farther from Drew. That’s the hardest thing for me to handle I guess, it’s expected that I’m going to leave my family, and that me and my friends will lose contact, but to not be able to see Drew, that’s going to be the hardest thing for me.

How am I suppose to go a whole five days without seeing my friends (from highschool), my family, and Drew? I mean it’s hard enough to not see Drew for five days now, but what about in a couple months. Things only naturally get more serious with time, it’s not going to be easy. Then again, nothing worthwhile is.

a couple rants

With senior year coming to a close, graduation plans are beginning to take form. With one exception, my biological grandfather is standing us up, again. He was never a real good father to my dad. He would make promises he never intending on keeping, guess some things never change. Why would you build up the hype to something as serious as graduation if you know that if you don’t show up because you “don’t feel like it” that your family will be hurt. I hope I’m never like that, he’s an amazing guy, or so I hear, I guess since I never see him I’ll just have to assume it’s true.
