Okay kids, time for an emotional sentimental-ish entry.
I just heard the song Photograph on the radio. Now, I'm not a big Nickleback fan, but that song always makes me kind of sad - not because I miss High School, but because I had such a bad experience there.
I wish I had great memories of school, but my memories consist more of feeling left out all the time, sitting at home friday nights wondering what the hell was wrong with me, being made fun of (kids said I looked like a man or I was a dyke), and wishing I could dissapear.
I hate the fact that I can't look back on my High School years and laugh about them. Whenever I think about those years I get sad and angry. Life's not fair. I guess I just need to accept that. I mean, life has been treating me a lot better since then, but kids can be so cruel and it's hard to get over.
Just needed to get that off my chest.

I don't miss school at all, kids can be real shitheads at that age! I used to get messed with a lot, some of it I may have deserved, but most of it was just ridiculous.. The nice thing about it is that I got to see where most of the people who messed with me ended up! I got teased for being a geek and now I own a small tech consulting firm, the person who gave me the most shit is 27 years old and still living with mommy and daddy!

Kids can be stupid, that is life. All you need to know is that the best years of your life are still ahead of you. Your time on earth is what you make of it. Surround yourself with the right kinds of people, ones that are supportive and whom you consider like family, and you will have a blast in your life to come.
