High School

I looked at my calendar today. (She says, sounding INSANELY boring)
Today is August 3rd. In just over a month, I will be taking my first steps into high school as a freshman. I've decided to make a list of fears, excitements, revelations, etc. (like a pro/con list)

Pros                     

  • Higher levels of intellect
  • Higher maturity level (or so I hope...)
  • Better classes
  • Languages offered
  • Older boys *
  • New people, new friends, less drama
  • New teachers
  • Better, HEALTHIER lunch options
  • GREAT band director (Oh, I play flute, if you didn't know)
  • Indoor hallways! (I've never, in my schooling career [not including kindergarten] have never, EVER had enclosed hallways. SUPER DUPER EXCITED!)
  • Less annoying, childish, restraining rules (If you went to my school, you would know.. PDA, dress codes.. EVERYTHING was super strict...)
  • People I've known forever (elementary friends.. middle school friends... anyone older than me will be there.. well unless they've graduated)
  • Football games
  • More sports
  • DANCES
  • Get out earlier

Cons                    
  • The classes are harder
  • There are hallways, which I've never had before.. kind of scary
  • "What if I don't get classes with my friends?!"
  • Homework.. and lots of  it (not like Ms. Tucker didn't give us enough already)
  • Different atmosphere
  • The school is so repetitive, I'm afraid to get lost. :P 
  • No room for slacking
  • Have to wake up earlier
  • No P.E. for me. (both good and bad.)
  • A lot of games we (band) have to perform at
  • Lose friends...?
  • No Ms. Tucker. (A.K.A. the best teacher in the world. ♥) 
Well, there you have it, everyone.. My pro/con list of high school. Just one more month of waiting, shopping,, tanning, popsicle-eating, relaxing, staying up until dawn; sleeping until dusk. It's almost over. :( 

Enjoy the rest of your summer!!

*Older boys are usually more mature, nicer, and more attractive. Therefore, a PRO for going into high school
