Breadsticks and Cheesecake


I can not wait until I graduate and head off to college. After going to all of the graduation parties and wishing my senior friends goodbye, I am ready for high school to be over. And yet I have another year. The next year will be fun, senior year always is, but it will be nice to move on to college and prepare for the rest of my life.

I am excited for senior year. It gives me a chance to run state in both crosscountry and track and improve my times, a chance to make more friends, and most importantly, decide where I am going to college and what I am going to devote the rest of my life to. I am one of those kind of guys that dreams of having a big family in a big house with a big yard. I want to get married, have a bunch of kids and get good job. The first step in that dream is to get my education for that high-paying job is choosing the right college. The aspect of finishing my education and also the social aspects of college have me very excited.

Meanwhile, its so sad that all my senior buddies are leaving, I have known alot of those people for a long time and I know that for some of them it may be the last time I see them. I am not going to get overly sentimental, so I will just say that I am going to miss them.

I went to the graduation parties this weekend and thoroughly enjoyed them. The Raspberry-Lemonade Cake at Kyle Schura's party earns the award for best desert while Aaron Elias's party potatoes topped off the overall list. I have had more crap food in the last few days than ever. I tried to even it out between chocolate and white cake, but chocoalte got a little sickening after a while. Patrick Cahalan's pancakes were probably the worst food, but he did have good brownies. I ate a lot of olives and strawberries. And Brueger's bagels, those were at Emily Ehlen's, one of my friends from Linn-Mar. In another year when I graduate, I have decided that I am going to have Olive Garden breadsticks, bagels, cheesecake and strawberries, for starters.

Anyways, I have a year before I need to worry about grad parties and leaving for college.
