*yawn*

May 9, 2009

okay. it does no good to post about this b/c i’ve already told everyone, but whatever…

I am going to the Hockday School next year. Why? I have three reasons:

1. I don’t want to take BCIS. (Olivia thinks this one is really stupid) I DESPISE BCIS. This is a really dumb reason for wanting to leave, but it’s still a reason.

2. The classes seem really fast paced. You also get to use laptops to take notes, and almost everyone is really, really smart. So that should be interesting.

3. This is my main reason. I am so stressed out at Liberty because of the ranking system. I really hate being ranked. Even now I feel so pressured to not only keep my current rank, but I also feel pressured to improve my rank. I just don’t want to work an extra two hours just to raise my GPA by .01 points. It makes me extremely mad when I see people like *cough* one of my neighbors who cheat of everyone else to get higher scores than me. If I do want to beat him, then I have to work harder. and harder. Hockaday doesn’t rank you; you only have to work to get on an honor roll, and I’m okay with that. 

So, yup. that is why I am leaving next year. But it did take me a long, long time to decide. The thing that I will miss most about Liberty is the people I know there. I won’t just miss my friends, but just my classmates in general. I feel pretty sad. I’ve known some of these people since third grade. But I’ll come back to visit, as soon as i learn to drive myself…which may take a while.

have you fallen asleep yet? this was a very boring post…
