Going in Circles

       Going through my school day is quite repetitive and boring. It's the same thing everyday, same classes, same teachers, and same people. Not that I don't like the people that I see everyday, but I hate the feeling of the routine.
       The first day of school everyone was all excited to be back, and as a senior, I was excited to finally be the class of the year. Everything started off colorful, new, and fresh. New school supplies to use in class, and everything was crisp. I love that feeling: taking out a new notebook, breaking it in, and making it looked used.
      Now, going into the second quarter of the school year--one-quarter done with my senior year--everything is a drag. I feel wiped out and so over everything. All my notebooks are full of writing, the freshly done bulletin boards have flyers covering them that are half-ripped, and the colors around the school start to blur into darker colors.
      As a senior, we are supposed to have special privileges, but really this year, there aren't many. It gets annoying because seniors should stick out, be more enthused about being the top class, but clearly, the class of 2011 is not spirited or pumped at all. I just wish the school wasn't such a formula, and the senior class would be more energetic.

  1. I agree about school being kind of bland. I love buying new school supplies and breaking them in too. =)

  2. It's called "mid-term crisis"--a precursor to mid-life crisis. :-)

  3. THIS IS AMAZING! hahah I totally agree with you though, how the school is like a "formula." And how the bulletin boards do get all messed up and ripped. :)
