Life Expectations from Before you Arrive

When I was in 3rd grade, there was this girl would babysit me. She was in highschool and I thought she was so cool. I couldn't wait until I got to high school. When I was in 5th grade there was this girl I knew who was in 6th grade and I thought she was so mature and grown up because she had classes in another building- the building for 6th graders. A girl names Dorothy who also happend to be my friend was just one year ahead of me. I was a freshmen and she was a sophomore. For some reason I thought I was missing out on something. Like I wasn't part of the club. When I got to 10th grade, it seemd as if my friend Dorothy had taken they mystery with her because I couldn't see what was so cool about being a sophomore. My ex was a freshmen in college when I was a junior in high school. He once cut our conversation short because he said I just wouldn't understand. How I wish I could just go back in time, just this once, to smack him across the face and push him off the couch. Everyone knows colllege freshmen are the biggest, immature dorks on the face of the planet! The maturity level is not much higher in college than senior year of high school. At least at my highschool.

I thought that when I got a "real" job, the money I made would somehow feel like it was worth so much more. When I worked at IMAX in high school, every dollar was hard-earned. At my paper-filing job, it feels like I do alot of nothing and they pay me so much money. I thought you didn't get anything for nothing in this world. I want to earn the money they are going to pay me someday, so I'm going back to school. I can't wait.
