I‚ like a sane person‚ went home and studied because I wanted an actual job instead of slinging fries for the rest of my life and getting a beer gut. Or I tried to study. You don’t skip three grades‚ get a 2400 on your SAT‚ and get into Princeton at sixteen if you’re stupid. But sitting in my old bedroom on the twin bed I’d finally outgrown‚ listening to the TV

Looking Up “We all take different paths in life‚ but no matter where we go‚ we take a little bit of each other everywhere”-Unknown. Growing up as a child was never really a tough thing for me.

Growing up I had dreams of what I wanted to be when I grew up. As I got older my dreams changed to new things‚ I never stuck to one thing for too long. I soon realized that one day I would have to pick one thing and actually pursue it. There are many things I would like to do but to this day I still cannot pick one.

I hit my forehead on the bottom protruding edge of my dark brown leather couch. Out of all the places to hit my head‚ I clumsily managed to hit it on a piece of furniture so close to the ground.
