a cool theory

i think my life goes in stages of coolness. it's actually not stages but more of a cycle. in high school, i was so uncool. in college, i was hella cool. in seminary, i feel uncool again. except, i don't think i was ever cool before high school. i mean, in elementary school, i thought i was cool. but i think everyone tends to think that. in middle school, i was definitely not cool. maybe high school is when i started making my way up. i felt all right in my lazy attitude about coolness by my senior year in high school. i know i've discussed with ann a theory about how both of us reached our coolness peaks in college. people peak at different times and mine was definitely college. i just hope that there is going to be another one some time. a mountainous range of coolness peaks and valleys. but right now, i feel as if i am on the downward slope. sorry to those in seminary who have to be subjected to my uncoolness. just wait a couple years and maybe i'll be on the other side of the cycle!
