School’s Out: The Musical: The Post
Growing up, one of my favorite “musical episodes” that cartoons always seem to do was the “School’s out!” musical from The Fairy Oddparents. They hardly air it anymore (only on those weeks kids actually get out of school, and only on the secondary Nick channel) but I still remember a lot of the songs. Heck I just stopped mid post to go look them up on Youtube, and I had no problems singing along.
I’m sitting here, well, out of school. I did the thing that basically this whole blog was me reflecting on: high school. My diploma is sitting on my shelf next to my other achievements. It’s an incredible weight to be lifted off my body – a weight that will be heavier when college starts. But between then and now, it’s just sitting at home and doing work.
But really, there’s tons of lessons that were learned during my 4 year stint at the school. I was never that outgoing and talkative, but things really turned at the end of the time at high school. Even if it was a rough lesson, it’s a good one to get.
There’s a ton of lifestyle changes I noticed need, or are going to happen, once I go live in a dorm during school. Mostly the small dorm and being always close to where everything happens. Here in the suburbs everyone is far and spread out, even though we all go to the same school. Damn. Then I’m not going to be near them anyways. New friends.
None of this is complaining. I’m okay that I’m going off to a new place and leave a lot of friends behind. But hell, in this day and age, you aren’t *really* gone from your friends.
I love technology.
