COLLEGE!!
I cant wait to go to college. I have been very stressed latley with being at home with my parents telling me what to do right when i walk in the dorr from school until i leave in the morning for school. I find the weekends becoming my getaways from them. For the past week My step-mom and Dad have been in Europe on a cruise and i can't complain. It has been one of the best weeks of my life, I can't complain. I can oly imagine what it is going to be like when i leave for college. I will finally be on my own and no one will be able to bother me about my homework, and doing household chores. I know that school will get harder, but i feel like i will be able to handle it better because i wont have someone nagging me and telling me everything that i need to do before I go to bed for the night. I am so excited to go to college, and i am almost done with all of my applications. It is very stressful because i want to know where i will get admitted to. Being at college will allow me to juggle things in a better way because someone won't always be yelling in my ear to finish everything.

Recently, there have been many times with my parents when I had to remind myself that I would be going to college in a year and i would finally have my independence. My parents irritate me so easily right now, sometimes even a perfectly reasonable question can annoy me. I feel bad because I know they are just trying to be thoughtful and caring but I just want to be able to come home or go out without an interrogation about who I am with, where we are going, what we are doing and everything in between. I feel so ready to leave right now, seventeen years has been long enough to live by my parents rules, but I know that when I do leave for college, I'm going to miss them. Right now, I am trying to be patient with my parents, especially my Dad and I'm trying to get to know them as people before I leave. I want to look back on this year as being happy and when I go to college I want to have good memories with my parents, not just the arguments we have. So Nicole, I know EXACTLY how you are feeling, but I think we just have to try to keep our parents happy so we can also be happy. When that gets hard to do, just remember less than a year, and you will miss them when you are gone because we always want what we can't have.
I think all seniors are going crazy this year. It has been so stressful. I feel like it will never end. I have never felt this tired and stressed in a single school year. I even took extra core classes last year, and i feel like im going to collapse. I guess it's just that senior year has more to offer with sports and activities, plus EVERYTHING for college, and keeping up with school. It's going to be so exciting when we graduate, but we have to get through all the other stress first. But i definitly know what you mean Nicole. We all need a break.
