Schoooooooool

It's started.

The excess of O's in the title are both an indication of excitement and sheer terror.

Mostly sheer terror.

But I don't mean that in a bad way. I'm very excited to be a senior, but I'm terrified of IB. But who isn't in these modern times? IB is quite terrifying. I blame Switzerland. They're the ones who gave it to America.

This is why I hate Swiss cheese.

But I've gone off on a tangent. (Not to be confused with a cosine. Ha.) I'm very excited about being a senior, even though I don't think the fact that this is my last year of school has truly sunk in yet. Holy Calcutta. It's my last year of school. After this, I have to pay to learn.

Though of course, I kinda have to pay to learn now. And by me, I mean my parents. My mom just signed a $200 check for graduation materials. God Bless Her. She also paid for my choir classes, my parking permit (which cost $50, a $20 increase from what it was last year), my yearbook, and everything else that costs money. Good thing I don't take the bus-- that would have been another expense. Stupid budget cuts. Public school is no longer free.

But anyway, I'm very excited to be a senior. I'm terrified of IB and also getting into college stuff. I really really REALLY want to go to NYU, but I'm gonna need scholarship upon scholarship to get in there, because it's one of the most expensive schools in the world (hardly a surprise, since it's in the most expensive place in the world.)

So, most of this "School" post is not really about school, but this blog is more of an electronic diary that anyone can see (hmmmm....), but it's mostly for me. So I don't care. :)
