Okie-dokie so school's startin' soon and EVERY BODY'S askin' me on whether or not I'm excited most of the time I say "yes" because the balance beam of favor always tips slightly more on excited's side. But here's the real reasons, feelings... whatever you wanna call 'em

Excited for School
1. Because then I can do something much more productive with my day other than reading, watching T.V., and eating. Although we A LOT of the activities mentioned at school. But there is always a reason besides just personal entertainment.... because BOY HOWDY I would not call some of the stuff we watch and read entertainment. And school lunch is a long way off from being scrumptious.

2. I'm really excited for journalism. WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

3. I'm really for the challenge of school, because if anything school is that. But I'm ready for it bring it on I say!!! I feel like it's the being of a race and I'm just waitin' for the starter's gun to go off so I can tear across the field. (field's are cooler places to race then a borin' 'ol track)

Not Excited
1. Getting up early and going to bed late.

2. homework, tests, and finals the only thing I'm not ready for when it comes to the challenge of school.

3. Although there are some people I'm looking forward to seeing, there are those who I'd be really happy to find out that they moved over the summer. (and some that I'm praying they leave) In some ways enemies aren't that different from friends in the sense that you say good-bye to one and say hello to another. Enemies are also like mosquitoes 'cause you can never get rid of them, but unlike mosquitoes there's no repellent ....and it's against the law to kill 'em.

4. School lunch, which sometimes can hardly be classified as lunch but rather "What the heck is this nasty thing in front of me that looks like it got chewed by the lawn mower, only to be run over several times by a semi, then go down the garbage disposal five times and somehow managed to end up on my plate.... oh look it still moving!!!!!"

But as you can see I'm still excited... even though the list of bads is longer than goods the goods is stronger by emotion..... actually maybe not.... school is a little tiring....... well it's not like I got much of choice do I?..... it's the classic "You don't have to like it you just gotta do it." or "It builds character" as Calvin's dad would say.... and you know well how he turned out.....
