I am an American Girl

Right now I'm fighting the urge to jump in a car, roll the windows down, turn on some Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, and just leave this town.

Isn't that what you're supposed to do when you graduate? Leave everything to have one last summer of freedom--to have your own adventure. Well, I decided to ignore it all and jump straight into school again. I should probably have my brain examined by a trained professional or maybe, just maybe, this is my way of having an adventure that is mine and not a simulated adventure that society tells me I should have.

Still, a roadtrip is tempting.
