GRADUATE

So, I did it. I made it through the last few harrowing weeks of high school. It was rough, and I had a few times where my heart dropped (my Latin class dissapeared a day early, and I needed it to graduate. oh dear that was bad.) and I ended up staying up until 4 am the night everything was due. But I made it. I even ended up with Honors. Thank goddess for my teachers. They were amazing, and I should really webmail them all and thank them. oooh, letter. I'll send the school a letter and thank everybody for their help.
Anyway, Even at my worst I made it on the B honor roll, which makes me feel really good.
We went down to the Cities on Sunday for graduation. Where I met one of my best friends. Ah, the wonders of online school. Caitlin has been one of my best friends for 4 years. She has helped me through some tough times, always makes me feel better, and I can talk to her about Harry Potter and Doctor Who, which none of my other friends seem to care about. lol. It was so fun to be able to meet her.
Very few of us actually knew each other. We had met a few times, but actually talked? rarely. So there were several girls just standing there off to the side not talking to anybody, and looking a little lost. I ended up going around and talking to everybody, because this was a day to celebrate! And I met some really cool girls. I hope I can cultivate quite a friendship with them.
I was wearing this gorgeous strapless dress, and when I took off my gown, holy crap! My family was very worried my dress had fallen down. My honors tassles were missing a tassle. So it's mine. It's very much mine. Broken, but accomplished.
I've been reading thhe past couple days. I read Journey to the Center of the Earth and Oliver Twist. I'm hoping to read about a book a day. Or at least every 2 days. I'm reading War of the Worlds now. I really want to get caught up on all the reading I haven't been doing. I love reading so much, and all I've been reading is fanfiction. And honestly, not a lot of good fanfic.
I'm so ready to go to college. I know it's not going to be sugar and spice and everything nice (honestly, why would I want it to be) And it's going to be hard, and the chances of me getting through it without an extreme sleep debt (and possibly, money debt) is very low. But It's where I belong. High school was my time to learn about myself, and college is the time to show that to the world. It's ridiculous how different I am, and I want to show everybody.
I really need a new laptop. I want to wait until next Spring, but I highly doubt that will happen. So I'm going to need a job, along with work study, which is essentially paying for my food program (which is ridiculously overpriced). I hope I can find somebody to rent with next year, because dorms are so incredibly expensive. Even the apartments are.
Anywho (yes, I'm aware my dialect is showing) I just wanted to get my thoughts out. I love this, and even if I never get anybody to read it, it helps me clear my head, and makes it so I don't forget what I'm thhinking about.
(notice the weirdness of the h's? That's why I need a new laptop. Along with the fact that it's 10 years old and my battery lasts an hour and a half, and I burn myself when I don't have it on a flat surface.
Blessed  be,
Megan
