I got to Vote!

So Chester had its preliminary school budget vote tonight. It was relitively uneventful, nothing too crazy went down. But I aged myself and some of the teachers there as well.

You see, 4 years ago, I graduated from Chester Academy, a little school where teachers are close to the families and the community that they teach in. They show up at the town meetings, they go to town events. They don't just work for the town, they work with the town.

At this town meeting. I saw some of the teachers who taught me all those years ago. I saw them while I was handing in my ballot, voting on various budget issues.

The wierd thing for both them and us is that we can remember when I was just a little snotty 8th grader. Now, I get to vote, and have a say in their future as a school, yet we can still remember all of the classes from years past. It was really strange to see how much things have changed, how time has gone bye, yet some things never seem to change.

Welcome to my wierd life as an Insane [High School] Senior.
