The end

Hullo

That's me done! High school is over. I finished my last day of school EVER! Not including exams of course, but they aren't really proper school days, are they?

It was a bit of an anti-climax if I'm honest. Nothing really... happened. I spent the whole day in the library with friends and it was actually quite boring. I didn't cry or get upset like I thought I would. I was pretty much completely indifferent. I don't really care that school's over. I'm not even really that bothered that I probably won't see most of those people again. I'm looking forward to the next part too much - looking forward to college and making new friends.

High school isn't where I'm supposed to be. I don't know where that place is, but high school isn't it.

I'm looking forward to whatever the hell happens to me next. I want to get out there and experience new things. I'm fed up being stuck in this stupid town. What teenager doesn't feel like that, though? How clichĂ© that I want to move away. But I don't want to just move away. I want to travel. I want to see exciting things and cultures. I want to see everything and do whatever I want.

If only it was that easy.

Next year I'm going to college, so I'm not even finished with school. Hopefully college will be better. But I don't think I'm a school person. I don't like learning, I like experiencing.

It's so strange that I won't be going back. I've been looking at that building five days out of the week for almost six years, and now... I won't be. I don't think it has properly sunk in yet. Or maybe it has and I just really don't care. I've been waiting to feel something - upset or nostalgic - but when I was leaving school all I was thinking about was watching Doctor Who (Eleven, though! Love him so much!).

I guess I'll keep doing what I've been doing. I'll work towards being an air hostess in the hope of travelling a little. I'll read, watch my favourite shows, and write my stories. I reckon I'll change a lot over the next few years, but I doubt I'll ever grow tired of reading, watching and writing. That's probably why I want to travel so much: I want to experience adventures like the characters I love.

It's just a shame I can't do it with them, or experience their wonderful worlds.

Here's me! High school leaver one step closer to... the next part... whatever that is.

Bye :)
