Directionally Indecisive
This is an extremely indecisive time of year. The weather can't decide if it wants to bring us warmer days or stay bitter and breezy. I can't decide between soccer and theatre, studying or sleeping, figuring out a summer job or just volunteering with swim team, technical theatre or photography. I'm spending over 12 hours at school between early morning classes, soccer practice, and rehearsal for Hairspray. There isn't much time for homework, socializing, or even alone time. I feel pulled in a thousand directions, constantly being asked to choose one, but never really picking. I do finally feel like I have a place, but I have too many and I can't be in all of them at once. I overestimated myself, which isn't something I do often. Hairspray will be over soon, I'll have more time for soccer and photography after school, and then I'll be in Germany practicing the language I can barely carry a conversation in. I think I spent a lot of time trying to find a place at this school, and now I fit in too many places and I'm not in a position to pick one over the other. I can't. High school is supposed to be when you figure out what you love, and begin to pursue it, but how can you possibly find out what you love when its wrapped up in stress and schoolwork and late nights pulling out of the school parking lot?
