Its time for me to go
"Who doesn't know what I'm talking about, who's never left home who's never struck out, to find a dream and a life of there own, a place in the clouds a foundation of stone. Many precede and many will follow, a young girl's dream no longer hallow. It takes a shape of a place out west, but what it holds for her she hasn't yet guessed. She needs.... wide open spaces, room to make some big mistakes, she needs new faces she knows the highest stakes. She traveled this road as a child, wide eyed and grinning she never tired but now she wont be coming back with the rest, if these are life's lessons she'll take this test." If one paragraph or a few short sentences could sum up my feelings for the past few years it would be just that. "She needs wide open spaces" A hit song by the Dixie Chicks, compelling feelings and aspirations to get out on your own, to be totally independent and get away. To walk away from the everyday life and environment you have grown to adapt yourself of. Although stakes being high, in reference to leaving family and friends it will be well worth the possible disappointment that may follow. How important is it to leave your hometown, your friends, your family and the life you have sp

I was in a state of depression realizing that I would have to resort to a nearby community college until the Fall then reapply. At first, I was a bit skeptical of the idea. ent years adapting to as soon as you graduate from High School? All through High School, there was this unrelenting pressure to go away to college. " Spirit Week, a time of social union, pep rallies, and ridiculous clothing that was somehow meant to show support for a football team who hasn't in over a decade won a title and manages to hold a bottom ranking in our Division 1 program, was looked upon with the usual apprehension, but with a sense of respect. Meaning if I was not top of my class there was no hope of acceptance since the entering freshman class fills quickly. If it were not for two very close friends I had made at Miami Middletown, I would have never attending Middletown again. By no means am I unhappy with my life or even feel like I am running away from a 'bad situation' although I know I am not as happy as I feel I should be. It was just a bunch of people who complained about how much fun Miami Middletown "wasn't", of course this was true but I didn't need to be remind it on the hour of every hour, every day. Going to Arizona would mean a thirty two-hour drive or a plane ride home. High School years were my glory days and I would repeat them and all of my fond memories without a second guess, but this is my day and time to grow up and claim some independence in my life. I would have just continued my year at Wright State University. There were always teachers who assured me that what they were teaching would be of endless value to me throughout the rest of my life, and would surely help me in college. A close friend of mine I became acquainted with as a result of attending Miami Middletown, first brought Arizona to my attention a few months back. I was meeting people from surrounding Cincinnati schools who were in the same situation as I was in.
