So, today is the last day of school. For me, it is my last day of high school ever. This doesn’t really upset me now, but I’m sure at graduation I’ll be bawling like a baby. But the real thing I’m excited for is going to college and meeting new people. However, I do have a few concerns.

First, I go to the movies with my mom all of the time. I get annoyed going with my friends because they always play on their phone or talk during the movie, so if there is something I really want to see, I’ll go with my mom. This will be a problem in college for two reasons. The first, most obvious reason is the fact that my mom is not going to college with me, and I don’t think she is going to want to drive three hours every time I want to see a movie. The second reason is because I’ll most likely be broke.

My second concern is that I’ll end up dead, but there are many reasons behind that and I don’t feel like explaining the complex inner workings of my brain.

And lastly, I am worried that my family is going to have a ton of fun without me while I’m in a small town dying from either stress or reasons from my second-concern-that-I-don’t-want-to explain stated previously. My worst fear is that I’ll come back for winter break and my room will have been turned into a work out room (highly unlikely–no one in my family exercises) or office. I doubt this will happen because I am basically the life of the party in my house, but a girl can’t help but wonder.

So, those are my (irrational) fears for college. It is kind of ironic because none of them are directly related to the college experience (except dying, I guess), but they are the fears that I think about the closer and closer my move in day approaches.
