The 4th Grade

Tagged:  •  

Aren't there times in your life when you just wish you could go back to the 4th grade. No, I don't literally mean the 4ht grade, but that ceratin time in life when decisions, relationships, school, and just life in general was so easy. Like relationships for example, where you could meet someone, and then in the next 10 minuets your best friends. why is that people in high school are so socially closed. Not only that, but this is the time in your life where you start breaking away from your friends because you know that you're never going to see half of them again unless there going to college with you. Decisions are just as bad. Don't you remember when your hardest decision was whether to have a ham & cheese sandwhich or PB&J for lunch .Yeah, now its more like a which college do I go to. The choices we make now affect our future and not just how messy are lunch is going to be. I just wish sometimes, that I was back in the 4th grade, running around the playground, and picking up thoes little white flowers, and trying to make a necklace out of them. If only time went by slower, and we didn't have to jump into the "adult world" so soon. I mean come on, I am not even out of my teen years, and in the fall I am going to a new town, and i am meeting new people, and I am having to go live on my own. Time Just Needs to FREEZE!!

I understand what you are going through. What you need to do in this time of your life ( I know because I'm in the middle of my college career) is to make some time everyday to just breathe and be quite. I promise, it's going to be easy to try and do everything in one year. It's not going to happen. Remember it takes an average of 4 years to graduate college (sometimes 5 or 6). Also, it's not bad if you get a year behind. I am, and it's not the end of the world. Just remember to take things as they come and understand that tomorrow is a new day.
