Press On Toward The Goal

Well...I said I had a lot to say, but it's a few days later and I'm one of those people who forgets things easily, so I'm not exactly sure what was going through my mind when I last posted. Anyways...today was my first day back at school after spring break, and after having a great week and ending on an amazing weekend, school was definitely NOT where I wanted to be at 8:00am this morning. It's my last quarter of high school (only 36 days of class left!!) and I know I should be having fun, but I'm really just over everything. The drama, the homework, the people (not all of them :-] ), the classes, the reading, the BELLS. Oh my goodness, the BELLS. I never realized how much they annoyed me until today. Bells seem to run my life, they're constantly telling me when I can eat, when I can leave, when I have to be sitting in my seat, when I need to start walking to class. Ugh. I don't know, they just really irritated me today. And the drama, I HATE drama!! Geeze, there has been some big drama this year (of course, it's high school, I should expect it). Who cares if you didn't get invited to a party?! Who cares if someone doesn't like you?! It's their problem, not yours!! (I feel like I may be being a bit hypocritical since I catch myself being caught in the drama right along with everyone else, but I'm working on the whole 'who cares, get over it' idea). 20 years from now no one is going to care about what went on in high school!!!

Back to the 'I should be having fun.' I guess I am having fun, being a senior has it's perks, but I'm really ready for it to be May 17. I'm ready to walk across that stage, get my diploma, and never look back. Yes, high school has been fun for the most part, but it's just a short 4 years of my life. I'm ready to go to college, be on my own and see what else God has in store for me...

Philippians 3:14 "I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus."
I have to keep pushing on, no matter how much I complain and want to be done with high school and move on to the next chapter in my life. I have to remember the prize...
