The only reason I went there in the first place was because my aunt went there and sent, or was intending to send, all 7 of her daughters there, and I won a music scholarship there. There was just a ton of pressure to stay there since so many of my family members thought so highly of the place.
But my the end of my sophomore year, I could not take it anymore and I needed to get out, so I transferred to public school, and that was the best decision of my life. I grew from this angry, rebellious person to a sort of oddball person who was still growing, but no longer tried to alienate herself. Then, over the summer of senior year, I really grew into myself and transformed into the confident and girly person that I am now.
By the end of senior year, I was a completely different person - I was extremely involved, and I had a stellar group of friends.
