The obstacle course of life...

Ready? Set. GO! There are many obstacles we face as a senior in high school. What from dating all the way to college planning, there is a lot to worry about. Myself, facing many obstacles at the moment, have been planning attentively. Like just this past weekend, I had to take my SAT'S at Manatee High School, immediately after, I had to drive to Sarasota YMCA (a 40 min drive) for my Tri-County swim meet which I was already 3 hours late for. Just before I got there, my car broke down in the middle of a turning lane. After waiting an hour to get another ride, I finally made it to the meet. Coming home that evening, I found out that all the parts wrong with my car would cost over $1000!!! The following day I found out my insurance payment was due also. All while being an unemployed student :) Anyways, those are my money obstacles for the moment which will be worked out very soon. I also have college planning to do. Deadlines, deadlines, and more deadlines. Scholarships, essays, applications.... it never ends! I also play sports which get in the way of a lot of my school work and social life. Instead of coming home or going out with friends, I have to go to swim practice and spend the majority of my weekends either at a swim meet or training for wrestling season. I also have to juggle all this while being Student Government Co-President and this being Homecoming month. But don't think this as a complaint! I love what I do and how busy I am. These are just a few of my short term obstacles.
