Becoming more than a minor much too soon.

Goodness, my english teacher is getting to me. I wrote my title and immediately the phrase "ALLITERATION" popped into my head. So anyways, i of course started this blog for the sole intention of having a way to whine and complain without annoying a real person. And believe me when I say, it is far too easy for me to annoy people. So what better thing to complain to than cyberspace?! I call it MINOR BANTERINGS. I'm pretty proud of the title. I'm a minor, and I'm bantering. Don't judge too soon though. You may be surprised I'm a rather mature writer. My first "banter" is on my prep work for college. I'm way too lazy to write essays, fill out net forms, get tax crap done and all of the butt sores that come with applying for college, but guess what i found?! I found a college in Arizona that is cheap, and pays full tuition for me to be in the marching band! How perfect is that?! As a hard core band member, this is a dream come true.

Even better than that, i have a job all set up for this summer where i'll be making bank! So when i arrive at EAC, i'll have plenty of money to keep me safe for a very long time! I can buy a car, a laptop, and maybe even a brand new saxophone! (that's my favorite part) And even better than THAT! I'm working with two of my best friends this summer! It's all working out quite smoothly considering I didn't do much to prepare. I take this as a sign that I'm making the right decisions. As a teenager, the easier things are for you, the better! Part of me is dreading leaving high school, but most of that worry was gone after I made an official decision on which college to go to. I mean, think about it. On one hand, I don't have to pay taxes, i can go to parties, I don't have to have a job, it's great! On the other hand, i can't leave the house without getting the dishes done, i can get grounded, i have a curfew, i can't drive, and i have to live with my parents.......by myself. Which gives me all the motivation in the world to move out of the house.
So right now, moving out waaaaay overpowers staying home. Big time.

I catch myself thinking about college all the time. It's all i think about. I think about college more than i think about boys. For me? That's saying a lot. I think about the apartment i'll have, the parties i'll go to, the car i'll drive, the people i'll meet, the band members i'll march with, the thrill of receiving my diploma, everything! Independence is calling to me. I don't care if i have to live in a cruddy apartment. It's going to be mine! I can choose when i want to clean things! I even look forward to those chores and responsibilities just because i'll be doing them on my own free will! Look out world! Bonnie's coming! Marriage? That's way in the future. Any boy i could even think about marrying should either be leaving on his mission soon, or is on one now. Right now, i just want to savor the taste of being an independent woman. Psh! all this and i'm not even eighteen yet. I'll be a minor up until i'm setting foot in my own apartment door. I think starting life off early is good for you. It helps to get things out of the way before your age hits you in the face. Open up your arms to the world everyone! You might just find out you like it.
