Picking the courses for high school = staring contest

today, yesterday, and most likely tomorrow, i will be staring at pieces of paper that have to do with high school courses

things are harder if you want to learn everything
and although this might sound weird
but, now i hate it when my parent's tell me that it's my choice
because i don't know what i really want anymore
there is electronic, JAVA programming, drama, and all the other stuff
which sound boring, yet feel really important

like Principles of Business

you just sit at your desk and stare at the courses your gonna take
and staring at the requirements for getting into the good universities
either you wanna go into them or your parents do or both,
your just sitting there, trying to narrow down you options

and asking yourself
What do you want to do with your life?
What do you want?
and then finally speaking to yourself
WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO?

you start to think of is it worthy to take a particular class
because if you do, you might miss out on something else that might be more useful or important

then the thought of credits, honors, AP classes, and other anvils of stuff comes into your head

so
what do you do?
wat do you choose?
what will happen when you choose it?

at this point
i'm still sitting there
thinking
and waiting for some miracle or a flash of light (no not the death one) or some revelation that will come to you and will make everything go clear

but nothing came

and so instead
something else came

"wow, i'm only a kid and i'm already trying to plan out my life"

the papers looked official
and they just stared right back at me

but then something did come
something that seemed just like a miracle

you see
your only going into the 9th grade
your only a kid
this isn't real life YET
this is just school
and your not trying to create a company
your only choosing classes
for 9th grade
FOR 9TH GRADE ONLY
worry about the other stuff later
worry about the thing that need to be worried about now
and then
don't worry
although that doesn't make sense
it helps
it slows things down so you don't explode with pressure a few years earlier than you need to

you can find what suits you later
right now
your just choosing classes

anyways
that is my advice
that is my explanation of my advice
(pause for effect)
(pause to let wat i said reverberate into your brain)


but a shorter way
is to ask your parents :)

so don't stress out
after thinking that
i had another thought


wow i need to blog about this
