The Home Stretch

I'm in my last days as a high school student. It's surprising though because I can't exactly say that I'm sad about it, or happy about it either for that matter. Just about everyone in either depressed  about leaving friends and family, or ecstatic because they never have to come back, I'm really not feeling either to the extreme. I love the atmosphere of the FMSS arts program, It has made me who I am today, helping me on so many levels, but the school as a whole, is still a high school. And like all high schools it's really just a facade of what the real world has to offer, I can't be true to myself in saying that I want to stay here, no matter how much I've grown at this school. And why would I want to stay here when my future is so exciting, with the York University Film Production waiting for me in just two months, it's unbelievable really. 

I'm ready to jump into next year, but for now, I'm held up with my final exams, both the News show that I've been directing, and a monster of a summative, the Artist Promotion Project for the Eminence Production Company. The news report is well set however, everything is moving along smoothly and we should soon finish with success. My concern is that with Eminence, The final exam is not a guaranteed success, I'll be working longer and harder than ever to pull this one of, sleep is a luxury not easily obtained. I was worried about staying in vacation mode after my time in L.A., but this past month has done more than enough to both wake me up, and send me into cut-throat, business mode (It's funny how fast I can shift). These exams are so crucial, because either one has the potential to make or brake my final Average, which needs to stay high if York will remain in my future

Well I'll be hard at work for the final stretch; guaranteed I won't see much sleep for about a week's time, but it will be well worth it in the end.
