it comes from everything
twelve days. man. people keep asking me if i'm excited and if i'm ready and the answer is a resounding ummleahmeri..guess... and a pleading look to not ask me such questions.
unlike many of my peers i know what i want to do, or at least what i have to do. i'm really only good at three things, two of which i am merely the better part of mediocre. i, of course, have picked the things that i technically don't even need to go to college for, and the added education may or may not do anything for me anyway... really i'm just ready to be out. i love my padres i really do, i even like them most of the time, and they are considerably cooler than those of many of my peers, but the consistent, perpetual hen-pecking is almost entirely responsible for why we leave the nest with the flourish that we seem to. i don't know what i'm saying. it's three o'clock in the morning and people are going off to college left and right and all i've got to do is play the ever-antsy waiting game until the nurse calls my name into the office. until then i will continue to stretch myself over this summer like a too-tight glove in the desperate attempt to live out my envisioned three month last hurrah to the very, well, last... until the day i glance up from my magazine and the lady in white calmly informs me, "brittany, umd will see you now" FIN. 2:57 a.m., Saturday, Aug. 14, 2004 |
