thoughts about ish
We’ve been in school now about three weeks. I would tell you senior year was going fantastic, but that’s not really how I feel.
I feel like Physics is going to be my worst subject (but that’s already a given since I’m an English Major and have no idea what I’ve been doing in science classes the past three years). However, my best class probably won’t be English either. With my luck, it’ll be math and I don’t even like math anymore. So I don’t know what going on. Then there’s Homecoming. Officially it’s in less than a month, it’s in three weeks. I don’t have time. I have my dress and I still have to buy my accessories. I also need a date. But I’m going to be a Debbie Downer right now and say that this is my Hopeless Homecoming and I probably won’t find one. All of my choices have failed me and I really don’t know what to do. Yeah, three weeks seems like a long time, but when you look at it in days (about 19 to be exact) that time seems so much sooner. I also got my phone taken away in physics. It was really dumb too because I wasn’t even texting. I was actually doing work and he was coming around and saw my phone. That’s cool; Mrs. Stropko hasn’t given me an inschool… yet. But I’m pretty solid on the fact that I wasn’t texting. She still has to talk to Mr. McKenna and he’ll ruin my life but that’s fine. Oh and let’s not even talk about Colleges. I have seven that I’m applying to, one that I’ll for sure get into, one that is a dream school without my exact major, and the other five are options. I wish I was applying to Boston College or Boston University though. I would love to just live in Boston, MA. I would be perfect there. But I’m applying to Bowdoin College in Brunswick, Maine. It’s a liberal arts and sciences college, however they’re English program doesn’t have a focus in creative writing. So I’m not too sure about that one. I’ve been told that Ohio State has a really good creative writing program. I stopped wanting to go to OSU back in eighth grade when I realized that it would be impossible, but I might as well take a chance and do it. The University of Toledo has open admissions so I won’t get denied. John Carroll, University of Dayton, Baldwin Wallace, and Miami University are the schools that I have to worry about the most; I’m really not too sure how I’m going to make it so I stand out for these schools. I picked my essay topic for Miami and BW already though, I’m writing about how Harry Potter has influenced me to go into Creative Writing. I think it’s a solid choice and I know what I’m doing. And one more thing before I let you all live your own lives, I’m letting one of my friends who I’ve known since my freshmen year write on the JDKC Facebook Page. His name is Sean Long and he’s been asking me to do this since Kulina’s graduation party. I finally decided that maybe it’s a good idea. Maybe letting someone else’s ideas run through will encourage me to write more often. I’m really going to try to this year anyway. Especially since it’s senior year and I want to keep a running series going. But this is part two of the chronicles. This is where it all begins. You’ve been reading my ranting and raving for the past year and a half, I only hope you all keep coming back throughout my senior year and well into my college life. For now that’s all I have. I’m Jackie and remember, I don’t know crap.
