High school was great, but I was more than glad to leave after the senior all nighter. It may be that I already pulled an all nighter this last week finishing my viral mission call video, but all nighters are a little immature. I like sleeping. I feel like I should just love not getting any sleep, but I don't.
For the heck of it, here is a list of things I never did in high school:
- Never kissed a girl.
- Never sluffed class to go to Hart's (however on many occasions I sluffed Pretend to Exercise (PE) many times to go to seminary).
- Never got in a physical altercation.
- Never got detention.
- Never had to go to attendance school. That's right, this guy is no slacker. On time most of the time.
- Never did the school talent show.
- Never gave a speech to the school while running for Student Body President. I don't care that I didn't win, but I love public speaking.
- Never was in a play/musical.
- Never played football as a Viking.
- Never read Lord of the Flies.
- Never had a girlfriend.
- Never bumped into a girl in the hall and as we're both picking up her papers, we accidentally touch hands, look into each other's eyes and then fall in love. That never happened. Close, though.
- Never went on a date with a cheerleader.
- Never got beat up by the star quarter back.
- Never won anything significant besides third in the state science fair.
- Never tried out for a sports team.
- Never really managed to get any of the girls I liked to like me back.
- Never build a birdhouse in Wood shop.
- Never called it Wood shop until just now.
- Never had a limo for a dance.
- Never went in the tunnels. This one is actually really disappointing. I have wanted to go in the tunnels since I knew they existed. I always wanted to make videos in there. Not even videos about the tunnels, just videos in the tunnels. I have failed because I once said I would not graduate without going in the tunnels first.
- Never blew up the Death Star.
I think that last one is proof enough that I am out of ideas.
Honestly though, as much as I will miss high school, I am ready to move on because I really just want to be in the mission field. There will be a few good things this summer, but all in all I need to go to Italy. I am taking online courses free on memrise.com. Check it out. It rocks.
Have a good summer. See you in a while.
