Post 1: Summer Fling

“Hey Babe! So are you ready to begin that Summer Fling.” As he reached in for a kiss, I had to pause. If it were any other day I would've said yes in a heartbeat. I mean look at him, well you can’t but I can, he is the most popular guy in school and the hottest! But with my High School Graduation rolling around the corner I had to get a reality check. I gave myself time to reflect on my life and process the decisions that I have made. The conclusion I came to is that I am a total wreck! I had to get my life together and having a “Summer Fling” with Chase was not going to help.

“Look here, Chase. The past few days has served as a time of reflection and reexamination. I have reviewed the situation of our so-called Fling and I have…umm… surmised that it would be of no value and quite…cumbersome towards my future. I am heading in a different path, one that includes responsibility, poise, and big vocabularious words,” I said with such certainty. The confused look on his face just proved to me that I was making the right decision. His simple mind couldn't comprehend the perspicacious words I was using. Wait. Does that word fit there?

My parents have been very supportive of my new change in heart. They understand that there is always a point in a girls, I mean women’s life, that she must realize the value of her time and how she must use it wisely. As celebration for this momentous occasion, my parents got me a gift. So unexpected! As I tore away the wrapping paper that had such vivid and vibrant colors, a hard covered wonder was revealed. My very own dictionary, that’s where I've been getting all these gargantuan words from. I’m not quite sure how to use them yet but I believe that over time I’ll get the hang of it.

Now, I am not completely changing my persona. I've always said that once you make it, you've made it! And I've already made it! So who says I can’t acquire higher knowledge and still be cute. I plan to be that cool yet down to earth popular girl. The one who is nice to everyone, gets super involved with everything, and gets to date all the cute guys. I couldn't be more excited for college!
