Those were the days.....

There are days when I feel so stressed with all of my schoolwork, that I just wish that I could go back to high school. I wish there were days when I could relax and not have to worry about a test, quiz, or major essay. I just feel like I can never get caught up.

Sometimes I wish that I could go back to high school when everything was easy. I could wake up and go to school from 8 to 3, and then come home and do whatever, or go to work. My schedule was fixed and I did not have to worry about going to class at night, and having hours in between to manage my time.

I could come home and spend time with my family, or go to my boyfriend’s house. Life was good, while I was in high school. I do not get to see my family and my boyfriend as much as I used too and this makes me sad. I miss having a carefree life.

The one thing that I miss the most about high school is that I got to see my friends every day. Almost every weekend we would all hang out and spend time together. We would go out to dinner or just go to each other’s house. I hate how I am apart from some of my best friends.

Another thing that I miss about high school is that I performed extracurricular activities such as: cheerleading and clubs. I miss the way I was so involved in my school and I knew just about everyone. My high school was small, so I was on a first name basis with the teachers. There were a couple of teachers who were my best friends. If I was having a bad day, there were a couple of teachers who knew what to say to make me feel better. In college, you are not on a first name basis with the professors.

Sometimes I wish that I could have time to take up a hobby, or just have time to work out a lot more than I do now. I also would love to have time to go to the park and just have time to do leisure activities. The only thing that I do now is work, school, sleep, and eat.

I would definitely have to say that I miss the free time and the carefree spirit that I had. However, I am ready to move on with life and graduate from college.
