the outside world

the outside world is very cold. and snow covered. well at least right now it's snow covered. but that's not what i'm meaning when i say the outside world. by outside world i mean the world outside our our little sheltered life that we like to call high school. we live in a box. really, we do. a cardboard box, just kidding, it's actually a brick box. my box has a name, it's kennedy high school.

let's compare my box to um, i don't know, something that has many little boxes connected together. because i have other little boxes that i live in outside of my main brick covered box. this next box is a metal box. it's where i work. i don't live in this box very often. though i tend to enjoy it when i do, i actually like my job no matter how much i complain about it. i like the people i work with. we all like our metal box. it has a name too, old navy. then there are random other boxes that i visit from time to time.

so now that i've spent some time comparing my life to boxes i kinda feel like explaining why. here is why, we are extremely sheltered people. and by extremely sheltered i mean EXTREMELY SHELTERED. seriously, my idea of the outside world is anything outside my box. i think. okay, i'm pretty sure. i live in a world surrounded by these nice four walls. i rarely have to leave my world of boxes. a traumatizing story would fit nicely here but i don't have any.

i just wonder if my world of boxes is going to come with me when i move away and go to the wonderful world of college. i'm guessing that it probably will, and my green and gold brick colored box will probably change colors to show that of the school i'm now going to. //i still do not know where i'm going to college. i do not know when i will be deciding this// but i'm guessing that my box won't be as, i don't know, boxey? my new box probably won't be the sturdiest, it is closer to the outside world so there's a good chance that the cardboard won't be as thick. or maybe it'll be missing chunks in the sides. i don't know.

now that i have you all thinking i live in a carboard box i should probably end this post.
