Class of 2011

*I'M POSTING EARLIER IN THE WEEK SO I HAVE MORE TIME THIS WEEKEND TO STUDY FOR A TEST THE FOLLOWING WEEK. THIS POST IS BEING POSTED ON MONDAY, MARCH 1, SO IT IS THE POST THAT'S DUE FROM MARCH 1 - MONDAY, MARCH 8 AT 8:00 A.M.

Unfortunately I was conceived in the year of 1993. I find it frustrating to cope with those who were born into this same year who have grown up (really they haven’t grown up at all) to be immature and vile. I was once proud and felt the feeling of being a part of something when our class was labeled “The H – E – double hockey sticks Raisers.” I frown upon my former mal judgments and reflect on all of the opportunities I let perish at my dimwitted actions which may cost me minor consequences in a looming future. However the spring flowers have bloomed and my senses awakened as I stir from a mischievous middle school slumber. Still, a little monkey business lingers about in my head and I sometimes still experience symptoms of a thirst for the adrenaline which I would thrive off until a week later. Sure I still retain my adrenaline junky friends I had once held tight bonds with in middle school, but I slowly am awakening to realize what idiots (lack of a better term) they are.

As I enlist into clubs/organizations, hold a position at a local restaurant which I dedicate my time to, and actually put effort into my education, I watch wondrously a good percentage of the 2011 class plunges deeper into an unfulfilled life. Of course I’m not suggesting living life as a teenager is uncalled for, as I would be being a little hypocritical, but even teenagers have responsibilities. It’s so hard to progress through high school without facing so many temptations, especially in my class. I feel pity upon those among me who participate in their classes and have to withstand the temptations and who actually have a future. In prior years, the lack of responsibility which students had was made obvious in the minimum participation in the election for class officers, where there were literally not enough people to fill in the positions.

I only wish that as I progress to college and further advance in my studies, the colleges will crop out a good percentage of those who fail to engage themselves in their studies and are solely focused on partying and having a good time. I hate to be the party pooper, but things do need to change.
