First post about stuff

First post, well, here goes:

So basically, I created this blog to chronicle the ever exciting and confusing time known as senior year of high school. I hope that blogging about all the things that happen to me this year will 1. Help me mange my sanity 2. Give me something to look back on when it's all said and done and 3. Potentially help out future stressed out seniors and hopefully help guide them down the weird path that is the end of high school.

Disclaimer:
I am probably not the average, ordinary high school senior. First of all, I'm in the International Baccalaureate program, which is an internationally recognized advanced curriculum program, so the things I have to do for that are probably different than most other students, so when I start using a bunch of strange acronyms and abbreviations, just know it's because I'm in this program. Second, I am in the marching band at my school. This may sound like not a big deal but believe me, we take it very seriously and a lot of my posts from now until at least December will include or be centered around that. So in addition to weird IB acronyms, there will be lots of music terminology that many may not be able to relate to.

But if you still want to read, despite the weird stuff that I'll probably be talking about, get ready because here we go.

Have an excellent August 1st,
Colleen
