I realized that high school is just a stupid phase that I must overcome, so why should I take it so seriously? These people feel like high school is the greatest time of their lives, thus they end up marrying some stupid local person and staying in the area for the rest of their lives. I don't want to be like that, I don't have to be like that. I have the ability to mold my future, to make it how I want and that is what I plan to do. There is nothing stopping me from living my life how I want and that's what I plan on doing.

things seem like they're going to start going my way (academically that is)
