Gradu-Say-What?!

Today it totally hit me...I'm graduating from high school! All year I haven't really had that feeling of being a senior or that my time is almost up but today it hit me and the water works have begun all thanks to my lovely broadcast teacher Mrs. Brueck :)

As I was packing up she kept asking me about deadlines and when my last day was and when I said today it hit me...I won't be going to the Career Center everyday like I have for the past two years. I have become so routine to waking up between 5:45 - 6:30 every morning to get ready, drive to Hallsville and get on the bus to Columbia that not doing it ever again is going to be....different. Without the CACC, I know that I wouldn't be where I am today. Because of my broadcast classes I got to be the very first high school intern at KOMU and I'm so so SOOOO thankful for that.

Part of me is ready to leave Hallsville and the crap that is associated with the small town behind but as the clock runs down I'm going to try to make every moment count.

*Advice: Make every day count :D

Don't Tell Me To Change My Opinion

It really bothers me when someone tells me that my opinion is wrong because I'm telling the truth and they don't want to admit that. Yes, I know that everyone disagrees but one of my biggest pet peeves is when someone straight up lies to my face about a problem or incident.

As much I hate to admit it, I do not like being wrong...but if I am proven wrong I will admit that I wrong and apologize because that is how I would like people to respond to me. I am also a very truthful person because when it comes to how I am feeling or what I think I tell it how it is. I don't hide become some made up answer, I go by the facts because to me...that's all you can go on.

As high school comes to a close for me, people are letting the claws come out and I have been speaking my mind on many matters but my peers are not so found of it. I am entitled to my own opinion and thoughts and they can disagree with them all they want...that is until they start saying mine is wrong and making up information to "back them up".

*Advice: If something is messed up admit that you or the information is wrong. If you don't you are going to find yourself in a world of hurt and deep in lies. By admitting you were wrong up front you can save yourself time upfront. Also if you are going to make yourself up around your friends, either own it all the time or just keep your mouth shut!
