When I entered high school four years ago I never thought it would go by so fast. Of course, the seniors then told me this. They said, ” Get active, enjoy your high school years. You will blink and it will have already of gone by.” Me being a young uninterested kid, ignored there words. Guess what happened? I blinked. I can still remember sitting in my freshman year classes. The newness of high school, the lack of knowledge of the value of an education, and the value of time. Naturally, sophomore and junior year went by also, and as I sit year now with just two months left, I am left in both awe and sadness. As redundant as it sounds, the past eighteen years have felt like an entire lifetime. All the changes I have gone through, all the things that I have learned. Everything feels like the end of the world as a kid. What I have realized is that life has barely begun. The choice I make starting with my education will be important decisions that decide my future.
I am now left with the ultimate high school senior decision, Where to go? I am lucky (and cursed) in that I have a range of options. The deciding factors in which I have to decide on is whether or not I want to attend a, State or Private University, the location, and the overall Cost. I have found myself in a constant battle concerning these factors. Right now, I still do not have a final college decision. As mentioned before this is a huge decision that I don’t want to make a mistake on. As time goes on I know the one that feels the most comfortable will be the one I will choose. College is a gateway to the rest of your life. Do not rush in making your decision. Make your decision on what you believe is right and remain confident with your choice. The worst thing you can do is second guess yourself.
