College Limbo by Madeline PestolesiStuck in the grey area
Before school ends
And life begins
And parties are consistant
And I wonder
How much longer I can stand this place
And these people
And this snow.
But going to school
Is easier than the real world
Where my mom doesn't give me money
And I don't have health insurance
And then I get old
And die. 01/26/2004 Author's Note: Yeah, uhhh, this sort of drops off at the end, and I'm not really depressed or anything, I just feel like I'm never going to graduate. Grrrrrrr

Posted by Rula Shin on 01/28/04 at 10:01 PM Oh how true! Aah those college day memories how they're flooding back! But let me tell you that despite the pains of the 'real world' it is my firm belief that homework SUCKS...and most of the time you don't have homework in this, the 'real world' hahaha! Nice work :-) |
