I work on a farm. I take care of pigs, chickens and cows. I like fresh eggs that come directly from a farm. I have three kids. Two of my kids are not in high school and one of them is a high school freshman. I've been to college. I liked going to college.
I have 2 small dogs. I like to eat eggs. I'm on my high school track team. It is my last year of high school. I plan to go to college. I get good grades. My parents did not attend college. I am the first in my family to go to college.
What college do you plan to attend? I'm not really sure yet. I would love to go somewhere out of state, but I will probably have to go local to be able to afford it. I don't know. With those grades, you may be able to get scholarships to whatever school you want! Do you know what you want to study? That could help you pick a school if they have a good program for it Maybe. It's just so expensive. I think I want to be a nurse. It seems like it would be a good job and I like to help people. That sounds like a fantastic career path! I bet there are some great programs in-state for that. Or you could go to community college for the first couple of years and save money! I kinda wish I had done that. That is probably my smartest plan. What did you study for in college? I studied philosophy. Probably why I ended up working on a farm. Too much to think about and ponder. I would rather be at peace with my animals in nature.   That's interesting. I guess you have lots of time to ponder things when you're working on your farm... or do your kids make that difficult?  They are in school much of the day, so I have plenty of time think about the unknowable. It can weigh on you, ya know? I guess so. I'm pretty busy with school and track, so not much time to ponder the unknown for me! Although being alone in nature sounds wonderful. That is probably for the best at your age. No need to worry about all of that. How is track going? Do you plan to continue in college? It's going great. I won hurdles in our last meet and my team came in first in the relay. I would love to continue track in college. That's one of the things I'm keeping in mind as I look for schools.
