My $35,000 Birthday Party
I think if I were homeschooled, I would like— I would not be ready for the world. Like, I needed people to fucking be like douches to me, or to be like— right, like, I needed that. Like, you You need to be picked on a little bit to get like, to build tougher skin, and you need to be like, learn how to work with people. You need to be rejected. You need it. Yeah, you just— there's so much of it. I don't know. Regardless, let me just read this. Um, okay. All my friends and I were homeschooled and have now applied to the same high school, and everyone got in instead of me. A month or two later, just recently, the school offered me a spot. I'm hesitant. I'm hesitant to take it because I really love my life at home. Educationally, there really isn't a difference, but being homeschooled, I get to go on vacations all the time, our beach house, shopping, etc., and I really am scared to jeopardize it. I know that seems kind of like a bratty rich girl, but everyone gets scared to lose some things in life. From my dance perspective, I have cool things like going to South Carolina and California. I was just offered a spot at this exclusive intensive, which is hard to get into. It starts the first day of summer, so if I went to school, I would have to turn down the spot. I'm just scared that all my friends are going to kind of isolate me out in high school. They already have school dances and stuff for school that they post about, and it makes me upset. On the other hand, I am scared to jeopardize the awesome life I have at home and all my dance opportunities. I have finally started getting my name out in the dance world and have worked extremely hard over a decade for that to happen, so I don't want to see it go to waste.
