i am trying.

i am trying not to be one of those bitter seniors.
thats hates their class.
and hates this town.
and just wants to get away from it all.

but that is me. i am so frustrated with the people i go to school with.

the couples. that have to wait in their cars in the morning until their special someone gets there to accompany them into the building. like they really can't walk into the school themselves.

the gossip.that is all you can hear about. i learn more about the people at my school from just walking down the hallways then sitting down and talking to the person.

the parties. that occur every weekend.and the way people actually think it's humerous when they get in their cars "totally shit-faced" and drive somewhere. ( i think thats the term i heard at school today)

don't get me wrong. i have some amazing friends at school that i love.but this is our last year.after this, we are gone and on our own. and half the people at my school can't function without their girlfriend/boyfriend, and the other half can't function without alcohol. it's just frustrating to see these people lose their independence. and it worries me how any of us are going to be able to make it outside of waverly.

maybe i'm being a bitter betty.
or maybe i'm looking outside the high school realm of things.
right now, i'm not so sure.

you sound just like me two years ago...weird.

this is what i'd do:
think about jr. high. and about how worked up they get about things like the 8th grade dance and student council, and how it's everything to them.
you probably don't get bitter, but you might just smile, and be thankful you're not in that place anymore.

maybe applying that in your situation now would help.
not bitter, but thankful you're not there.
i think that's more outside the high school realm of things.
because i promise, even after graduation, people will do annoying things. i'm sure of it.

there's freedom in laughing about it.

The problem is you are more mature and more intelligent than most. What you have been through in life has taught you these things. I have the same problem. The sad part is it doesn't change. People always do annoying things. You will wonder if drinking for some people ever gets old. Usually, the answer is no. And, you will always be more mature and more intelligent than most. Be your own person worry about your own problems. You are amazing!

maybe i wasnt one of your people. but i used to be. i hope someday i can be again. i think this school year a lot of us are waking up and realizing how we are trying to be what we want to be. or who we really are, and then there are others who find it amuzing to be someone who they arent. i guess we just need to realize we will be okay with out them. and better off.
