The Rocket Summer and Ponderings
Nov. 18th, 2006 12:55 pmI have officially come to the conclusion there are two types of people
1. People who want to stay in high school forever
and
2. People who can't wait to get out.
I am the latter. I have always known I would be the latter. I don't hate high school by any means but I don't like it very much. Most of my friends are the former. The kind that thrive on the yearbook and can't wait to tell their kids about high school and all the great times they had. I was never really excitied for high school. I was never one to get too attached to things or surroundings because as it is shown with my luck things tend to not stay that way. I will miss my friends of course when high school is over but I don't want to stay their forever. The whole experience is quite suffocating if you think about it. You do the same thing for four years with the same people. Sometimes there are tears,laughs, and even an occiasional bad haircut. I really shouldn't get into deep musings about high school considering I still have a lot of it left. The Rocket Summer really started the thinking because I was listening to the song Brat Pack.
FYI This song plus the love for 80s movies is why we have our crew named the Brat Pack.
But anyway the beginning lyrics are :
For about four years I've hated this town
So much I just want to get out
Since graduation, was long ago
Please somebody get me out of this hole
Cuz I don't want to get stuck in here
When I am 34, just talkin bout high school years
So see this entry isn't completely random.
I hope this entry doesn't seem sad or anything because I'm really not. Sometimes I just like to think and I never really have anyone to talk about my deep thoughts to. I just wonder sometimes but so does everyone. Now I am rambling/thinking of this Something Corporate lyrics so i will stop.
