Ready or Not, Here I Come!

Throughout all my Senior Year and the whole summer after Graduation, I have been dying to go to college. After all, that is all we ever hear about in High School and how amazing the college life is. 


But as of yesterday my feeling have changed quite dramatically. I want to stay at my house where I know how to cope and deal with life. My family is here and some of my friends are staying in Orem. Yes, this is where I want to be. 

I don't want to move anymore. 

With these sudden change of my feelings, I know that I still need to go, and not only because I have invested quite a bit of money already into college. I need to move away to learn the new things that I can never learn at home. I need to get a life and not live with my parents all of my life. I need to learn and grow. 
People say that you learn who you are in high school, but I disagree. You learn who you are when you move away. You're parents are no longer there to tell you get dressed, go to school, eat your dinner (let alone make it), make your bed, go to church, read your scriptures, go to bed, clean your room, the list goes on and on. 
I will be responsible for my own self. I can do whatever I want and I will be responsible for the consequences of my decisions, good or bad. 
I will learn about all kinds of people and how to deal with the ones that I don't like and the ones I do. I will form new ideas in my mind that I have never thought of before. And with all of this new stuff, I start becoming a different person that I was in High School. 


So while I am nervous as all get out and no longer dying to move away, I know that this is one step that I need to take to progress on my journey of life. While my parents will no longer be with me, my Father will and I will always have Him for support. 

Ready or Not, Here I Come!
