A Little Chuckle

A kid in my English class was talking with this girl and me about how every couple of months he gets a really bad migraine. As I was listening he looked over and said “Do you ever get headaches?” I just laughed. He -expecting that meant no- continued on. Interrupting, I said, “actually, yea I do.” Questioning my statement he challenged me by asking when the last time I had a headache was. I politely stated that, “well, I currently have a headache that I’ve had for over 3 ½ years. The pain is unreal and it has drastically changed my life.” He looked like a deer caught in the headlights. Still shocked, he and the girl started to ask many questions.

College Applications

College applications are due at the end of the month. I have started but my school will not give me a transcript, which is putting me farther behind for the deadline. I have thought about my essays but cannot come up with how I am so different for everyone else or how I make my community better. I also need to find someone good to proof read it for me. Needless to say, this is a very stressful time in my life.
