Maturity Levels May Not Rise.

Today I started thinking about senior year and how excited I was to graduate and go to college. At first, I was going to attend Florida State University. You may be thinking that seems a little random, but at the time it made sense. After thinking how much I would miss my boyfriend, friends and coworkers, I just couldn't bring myself to leave. However, it is kind of ironic that now I really don't see many friends at campus. And, with work, studying and going to school there really isn't much time for a lot of lunches and shopping together.

Back, to my high school flashback, I remember getting really annoyed towards the end of high school thinking that some people really need to grow up and act like they are going to be college students. If you also are feeling this way, or if you end up feeling this way in a couple of months I hate to break it to you, but some of them never change. I was sitting in my journalism class on Wednesday when I overheard a couple of guys talking. They were all about who was getting with who and about the parties the night before. This I found slightly usual, yet, slightly annoying. Then, the started mocking the professor after everything she would say. Guys and girls that act like that really need to grow up and act their age. When the teacher says, "this was very unusual" and you hear them say, "no, you're unusual" it seriously makes you wonder how they are ever going to be taken seriously as journalists of even adults in the real world. After hearing this same childish game over and over it can get pretty old fast. I understand that it takes time for every one to mature a little bit and realize there is an appropriate time to be funny, but I hope that all of you seniors or fellow college freshman consider that you're getting older and to be "funny" all you want but when the timing is right.
