I love college

So I found myself eating lunch at Shiro's again thinking about my future. I had that song "I love college" stuck in my head. (Compliments of Heidi) I don't know I guess I just like the beat to it. The song has a real nice relaxed old school beat that I really like. But anyway it made me think about college. Gosh I haven't had much time to do scholarships cause deadlines come up so fast and there were a lot of scholarships that my councilor didn't tell me about. I was thinking about dorming at UH but it seems that I might have to stay home for college. $16,000 isn't something that just falls out of the sky and I'm waiting for the rest of my scholarships to be announced in may/june. All I have now is $7,000 a little under half way there. UH won't finish processing my papers until June so hopefully my grades and the rest of the scholarships can take care of the rest of my tuition. Hah if I'm having a hard time with this I feel bad for a lot of other people in my school because I know that many of them aren't going to college. A lot of those people include my friends I asked them if they're going to college and they said "No" I get mad at this because they're just throwing their lives away and we always used to talk about how we were going to be rich one day and have everything that we desired. But they don't understand, they're just so sick of school already. Well it looks like I'll be living that dream with not as many people as I thought I would. I can hardly believe it, back in the day some of my friends who were at my level or probably even smarter than me dropped to way below my level. Now they're drinking and smoking, skipping school, and all this other stupid stuff. It makes me sad to see people drop out of school. But hey I can't let them stop me from reaching my dreams. If my friends can't live their dreams then that's all the more reason for me to reach my own. If we can't live our dreams together then I'll have to live my dream alone sorry guys but I have a future waiting for me.
