ALMOST.... THERE.....

I feel like one of those guys in the desert, who hasn't had water in about seven years. And then suddenly he sees a tall cool glass of water that has three fat ice cubes floating delicately, and a thin layer of condensation on the outside, but every step he takes towards the cup sinks into the sand, so it takes him a long time to get there. So replace the guy with me, the desert as high school, and the glass of water as graduation.

I'm thirsty now.

Anyway, there are only seven more days of school left until I graduate, and they are taking SO LONG. I can't even stand it! What the crap?? What happened to two weeks ago, when school started and ended in the same hour? I mean, that's how it felt!

I take comfort in knowing that I only have two and a half more days of me evil Foods teacher. She's evil. And quite awful. She's not good at teaching. The only reason I passed the test is because I read the textbook. Well, not really. But I did some brushing up on my internal meat and poultry temperatures the night before the test.

Does that mean I'm going to be a good college student? I doubt it. I've always had a problem procrastinating...

I also want to find out who my roommate is, and who my kitchen mates are. I'll only be sharing a room with one of them, but the rest of the apartment belongs to me, and five other girls. And I WANT TO KNOW WHO THEY ARE.

What if they don't like me?

Also, the eclipse was bomb. Apparently, I did a bad thing by not buying the fancy eclipse glasses, and looking at it with seven pairs of sunglasses on my face. I was looking for my sunglasses this afternoon, and I had to sift through a huge pile of them on the table for ten minutes before I found them.

I'm really excited to graduate. Really excited.

Seven days.
