semester 2

man, only about 88 days left of oxford. thank god. im beginning to glorify the end as much as i can. think about all the hours we've spent here staying up doing hw and all the stupid teachers we have had to endure. arent you ready to graduate? cus i really am

another thing is the people. people here truly do bug me. no one with exception of a few do anything that seems interesting. theres an asian guy in my spanish class that answers, when i ask him what he did over the weekend, he did hw and went to chinese school. he said one week that he didnt do much becuase he had an essay DRAFT due. i told him that took only 2 hours tops and he didnt have anything else to say as to what he didnt do for the rest of the weekend. the moral is, people at oxford are only people at oxford. they are truly students and not people. they live for school and would not know what the hell to do if they didnt have to go. get lives, get girlfriends, do something. please. its people like them that make oxford seem like a nerd school. for this same reason, i take every chance to hang out with my friends from magnolia and get the closest i can to a real high school experience. i always envied them for being so calm and relaxed and "normal" but i never really could feel that normality becuase in the end i still went to oxford and i still had to do 2+ hours of hw while my friends sleep. if i werent so "elligible" for oxford, i would have never wanted to come to this stress-filled monotonous school where people get all frustrated off little things and cause others to get even more frustrated. i know, i can be pretty cranky and get all pissed easily but i can honeslty say that a lot of the blame goes on the people who put me there.

college is going to be great because im not going to be back at oxford. i love my friends, dont get me wrong, but we all need to get out of this place while we still have time to live.

were teenagers only once in our life. dont let something like oxford stand in your way from enjoying your young life while you still can. use it as a precedent as to what youre going to do later in life. dont wait to be happy, be happy now. dont wait to live, live now. take chances and dont worry too much and dont be scared to live. make decisons, make mistakes, make memories, live.
