The Real World vs. High School

The real world is so much easier than high school. Think about it. In the real world there are directions all over the place in posts offices, airports, etc. In high school there aren’t any signs, just room numbers so you have to run all the way down the hallway to see if number 375 is there, and if its’ not turn and go down another hallway. The people that’s another thing. In the real world everyone minds their own business or they give a friendly wave and move on. In high school you meet someone one day, and find out later they’ve known about you for a long time and are the ones who spread the rumor last year about your boyfriend and spring break. That rumor lasted your entire sophomore year! In the real world if you need to talk to someone you don’t spend valuable thumb energy texting them, or facebooking them (not to mention all the misreading tones, “oh you were happy? I thought you were yelling at me!”). You pick up the phone and call them or you meet up somewhere and talk to them face to face! Plus you aren’t graded on everything you do, you aren’t constantly being judged, and you can change your mind anytime you want without people flipping out that you’re changing. Basically, I can’t wait to graduate and be done with all the secrets and crazy teenage hormones. Good thing I have the rest of my life to live in the real world.
