the BIG choice; growing up

So this week i took my first college day of the school year. I went to SIUE, which i love, and i have pretty much decided that will be the college i'm going to. So now starts the application fun, and applying for scholarships and loans and all that non-sence. It kinda makes me appriciate the time i have left in high school, days were i dont have to know what i want to do with my life or think about the "big picuture". Days that i can goof off and hang out with my friends and enjoy the last few moments of still being innocent and not having to worry about bills or a full-time job or how im going to make it day to day. Thats my goal this year, to enjoy what time i have left just being a kid, not trying to grow up too fast. Cuz when your grown up, sure you dont have anyone telling you what to do or when to do it, or even how to do it. But then you have to start making those choices on your own and hope and pray that you made the right decision. Ya those kind of responsibilities i think i'll try to prolong as long as possible. So while all my classmates are trying to break away and go it on their own, i think i'll just enjoy the time i have, because soon enough it will be gone.
