The Semester

The past 16 weeks have overall been pretty good for me I guess. I’m not going to say that AP English is my favorite class or that I look forward to it… because it’s definitely not (I don’t think any class is…I generally don’t like high school) but I didn’t dread it by any means. I enjoy class discussions and some of the stuff I read. There isn’t a whole lot that I disliked, except for blogging. It’s easily my least favorite part of the class and the part that annoys me the most. This is partly because it is every week and tends to get extremely repetitive, and I also forget to do it often. I find that I never really have anything important to say in blogs so I just talk about useless stuff and that doesn’t really bring joy into my life (not that it’s really supposed to) I assume that I have learned a lot from this class so far, but it’s hard for me to say because I never can tell. I don’t regret taking this class at all because even if it is a lot of work, it’s better than being in a class where I’m not challenged and get bored. 

Time is flying

For some reason this year the holidays are sneaking up on me and time feels like it’s flying by. It still doesn’t feel like Thanksgiving even happened and now Christmas is almost here and it just isn’t right. Maybe the lack of snow and cold air has something to do with it. Also the semester is almost over… pretty soon I will only have one semester left of high school and then I’ll be done. That is probably one of the best feelings ever because high school got really old really fast. Another thing that is sneaking up on me is my birthday. I’m going to be 18…it doesn’t feel right and I don’t know how to handle it. I am extremely excited because I now get to go skydiving because I don’t need my parents permission. Except I don’t know if I should wait until its warm out or not, I don’t know if that matters… I should probably figure that out. Anyways, time is flying by and I don’t really like it. Yes I want to move on to the next part of my life but it also means that I am moving closer to the end of my life. This is very depressing but it’s true. I know that I hopefully have a very long time until the end, but it still doesn’t seem long enough. I don’t want to get old.
