Priorities

In this year, I've made a number of not so good choices. I'd go as far as to say, I've made some outright bad choices. Perhaps this isn't out of the norm for a teenager, but my priorities have been in all the wrong places. Placing friends and parties over academic advancement. And now that I'm starting college up in the next few weeks, I really need to get my priorities straight. School first, Then worry about friends, relationships, and the rest of life. How I do in school determines the kind of life I can expect after graduation, I'd like to think my friends are important, and they are to me, but I really need to do better in school. I'm sure they'll understand this means less free time to spend with them, but such is life. If only there were more hours in a day.
