Why I Am Excited For College Even Though I'm Still A High School Senior

Since starting my senior year last week, I feel so ready to graduate and move on to college. Passing through Target, Marshalls, other stores like that, I saw all the dorm room shopping and supplies which made my heart fill with excitement! Why exactly? great question. I think it is because college is a different experience where there are no “standards.” Whether it is the athletes, academic achievers, partiers, those who study abroad, their view of college would be different.

My high school experience is going well for the most part, I play varsity lacrosse, I sing in choir, I participate in different clubs and activities, but I love to write in the school newspaper. My sophomore year, I fell in love with journalism. My journalism class won an award for top newspaper of excellence, and I won honorable mention at the Ball State University J-Day competition. I love to write. I could write for hours and hours and never stop. This past summer, I applied to a university for broadcasting and journalism. I got accepted and I knew that since I got in, Journalism had to be a career for me.

Even though I haven’t graduated high school yet, college is so close to entering my life! I’m excited to start a new chapter in my life, and see what college has to offer!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
