For no particular reason I decided to browse through my old Livejoural. Man how I've changed.

As I'm sitting here at my computer pouring thoughts out of my mind onto the keyboard, I begin to wonder...My high school career as I know it is almost over, and it couldn't possibly wind down any slower. To tell you the truth, I'm so sick of high school. These next five months or so will go by quick and before I know it, graduation rounds the corner, yet it's the current pace that kills me. I guess my biggest gripe is this fucking high school cliché. Don't get me wrong, I've enjoyed myself thus far, but at the same time I yearn for leaving this so-called "institution of knowledge" behind. When I look around campus at lunchtime and see immature morons throwing food at each other, or groups of girls yelling at one another over some asshole guy, it gets me. If it's not the underclassmen and their lack of maturity, it's the overrated image of high school itself. Things from ASB to even school dances, the epitome of what enriches a high school lifestyle, start to get old. It's not so much that my feelings towards high school are bitter, it's just a matter of anxiousness for getting out. I guess I'm just antsy and want to start college really soon. Or maybe it's because this is my very last semester of high school and I'm that much closer to graduating, so very close. High school has definitely been fun, but while I may think of its perks, I also grow irritable and my patience runs thin with my time here at West Hills High.
It's almost hard to believe that this was at one point, me. A sense of unfamiliarity started to consume me as I read more and more entries, a stranger's journal if you will. But in reality this is the way it goes, does it not?
JESUS TRANSFORMS.

I've been there and still are there. What's super encouraging is to go back and read my prayer journal, and see what a thirst I had as a never believe for scripture. It's cool because it all means so much more to me know.
<3 YOU.
How amazing...right? A visual log of our walk with Christ.
