"I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best." - Marilyn Monroe
So, I know I have been MIA for the last week. I just have a major amount of stuff to get ready before its time to hit the books again. Yep, it's time to ring in the new (school) year. Going back to school can be a lot of things. Stressful. Exciting. Busy. Or maybe you're totally dreading the end of the lazy summer days.
Secretly, I have always kind of loved going back to school. It just seemed like there are so many possibilities - new friends, new adventures, new clothes, new crushes. Then, by about half way through the year, I am usually sick of school all over again.
And it's true, there's a lot of not-so-great parts about school. Loads of homework. Earlier curfew. Blah Mondays. Lunch room drama. Yikes. You just never know when a book report or hallway rumor is going to come around and hit you in the face. But then, you never really know when something great is going to happen either.
Okay, so I'm really not trying to be a total bummer. What I'm trying to say is this: Sure, school can be totally lame. But you can't just overlook all of the great parts about it, like seeing your friends, playing your fave sports, and becoming an even more Fab version of you. You just never know what kinds of great things will happen by time the last bell rings. So don't forget to enjoy it.
