300 things I want to do with my life
December 17, 2003@8:00 pm.
So... in psych we have been talking about what we want to do with our lives...oh yes just what I wanted to talk about - like i dont get enough of that at home!!!! I mean seriously, i know im one of the few juniors in the class and the seniors already have their applications into colleges, but im just not ready to think about that stuff yet. The more I think about, I love highschool..I feel like Im just getting to know a lot of people, and that Im just now starting to branch out and do things that I want to do - not just becuase my friends are doing it. Then I look back on all the things I havent done since in highschool - like go to a formal dance..i mean how sad is that? Well im on Prom committee this year, and if I dont go to Prom i will know that I am a complete and utter loser... SO hopefully I'll go! haha
Anyway...with all the talking about our future's Mrs. Gallaso had a "Brilliant" idea to add to the final project list. We now had to write 300 things that we wanted to do before we died. Doesnt sound to hard right??? YEA RIGHT! Thats what i thought too until i got to about 200 and realized that I had no more ideas and still had 100 more things to write. So here is the list I slaved over... actually it turned out all right, I could have definitly been more creative but w/e, i was just getting tired of it and wanted to finish it!
