Contemplation

In returning to my blog from my pre-college years today, I'm trying to decide whether it is worth it to keep the existing posts and add on starting around now to capture important thoughts and moments of my final semester of college, or if I should simply delete older posts and start a brand-new blog.  As of now, I'll probably leave past posts alone; they are intriguing to go back and consider where I was at the time.  However, in the new series of posts, the focus will be very different in that I will address topics that are on my mind instead of merely recounting daily activities.  I'll probably try not to sugar-coat things as much as I did, since in looking back, I see a few hints of hating high school, but not nearly the amount that I actually did.  Over the past 3.5 years, I've definitely grown a lot and went through the transition to a college student.  However, the next 6 months to a year will be the greatest transition that I will face in moving on and finding a career and comfortable life.  For the first time, I won't be in a purely educational setting and will have to adjust to many changes, which frankly terrify me now as I think of them.

I hope in following posts that I can capture my journey through this transition and avoid to some extent simply rambling on about my daily activities.  I will definitely still ramble though, as I find that my writing style leans toward random when applied to unstructured pieces.  I'll also be writing mostly as a reflection for myself, but will welcome any insight that other readers may want to give, whether in feedback, comments, or questions.

Note: The posts following this are from high school and reflect mostly on daily activities.  Proceed at your own risk.

Hey!!!

Well...Here I am once again. Except only older and wiser...ok maybe not that last one... but I have graduated now after a very exciting senior year. and now I need a job.. see Dad has really been pushing this job thing and I haven't had much luck, and now it July 7th. soo... yeah Anyways...
We just got back last night from new york. went to the Indy race up there and of course visited, but now we probably won't see everyone up there for awhile... especially me. in 2 weeks we'll see the gardners at new york city. But otherwise, we are very busy and won't get up there again until well after I leave for muhlenberg... which is where I'm going to college. it's unfortunate that I didn't write about the college choosing process on here. but anyhow. dad's going to ca in 3 weeks, and then we are going to mexico at the beginning of August. and then I have a week to pack and then I leave for college. so the month of july for me is empty but who wants to hire someone for only a month. so yep fun fun fun.

Well well well...

Look who decided to update. I have been busy. Everyone has MySpaces now. so I have slacked off on updating this or Xanga. but oh well. now we are in 2nd semester of junior year. ap calc, eff. comm., span. 2, and robotics 1. boring and horrible and fun and interesting. but I wont' go into detail. can't wait to get out of high school. spanish is a ton better now. class is actually worth going to. unfortunately I have classes with many of my friends. Carolyn in eff. comm. and the group in the corner. and also others in other classes that I at least know and talk to. but not a lot. now I am off to update Xanga cyaz!

And again...

Wow it has been a while. getting behind in all this blog stuff. since March i have turned 16. also went to NYC with senate which was fun. and now school is out and i am at home. might think about getting a job sometime soon. also had a bunch of shopping to do but shopping is really my thing since i'm so picky. Dakota is getting big almost 8 months old.

Update

So haven't updated in a LONG time. well this anyway. definitely updated my Xanga a lot more often. like almost everyday. unless I forget. anyway prolly won't update this cause I'm too lazy. so too bad for you people. well maybe I will. but who knows. everything is fun. Aca we are making calendars. History is boring. Bio is kinda interesting. and trig is ok too. senate trip is looking iffy right now. and that's about it. Dakota turned 3 months old on Saturday. yay! so cyaz
