I had never felt so confused inside my own head before

Robinson Session 1 My parents never encouraged me to go to college‚ but guess the figured I skipped high school so much‚ that I was not college material. Looking back when I attended elementary and high school‚ I was always shy and did not like public speaking or getting up in front of crowds.

Dear High School‚ I think I have the most to write about with you. You are not one place; you are four years that I’ve experienced in two places. My first year with you was at Gateway. Out of my four years‚ that is the one I’ll always remember.

However‚ when I finally got there‚ it seemed the opposite. You weren’t scary‚ mean‚ or anything else.
