There's nothing quite like being a high school senior. You spend your last months in a familiar place feeling as if nothing can touch you. You're caught up in the excitement of college fast approaching. Its a rush not knowing what exactly is next, you have a million doors open and you get to pick which one you go through.
Whether you know exactly where you wanted to go since you were five or your still trying to figure it out just remember, this is your life. Not your parents, not your friends, decisions should be made for yourself.
Its time to break free from the adults in your life making decisions for you. Spread your wings and fly. Don't be afraid to take chances. Life can throw some pretty amazing curve balls, but every inning brings each team to the pitching mound. Don't hold yourself back from something because you don't think someone will approve of it or because you think people will make fun of you. This is your life, so go live it. Be crazy, have fun, be young. You have the rest of your life to be old and boring and responsible but college is a time that you can do pretty much anything and its completely acceptable. You wanna move to Poland for a year? Put it on a resumé and call it a career building opportunity, after all Poland has become one of the biggest advertising hubs in the world. The world is out there for you to discover, don't let it get away from you.
You've heard it a million times and I'll say it again, the next few months will bring some of the biggest changes of your life. You'll leave you family and your security blanket at home, but you're going to be walking into some of the best years of your life. Make mistakes, make tons of them, and remember that no matter what you choose to do it is now you're decision. No one else's. And there's nothing more liberating than your parents thinking they have veto power but knowing that they actually don't.
