SMACK. Reality hits.

Is it just me, or does time seem to be just flying by?? Holy cow, it seems like events in my life never cease to keep me busy, 24/7. And maybe this is just me again, but I wish the feeling and spirit of the Olympics could be here year-round. It seems like I'm growing up too fast, and maybe that's because... I am. Can you even believe that in two or so years, everyone will be going on missions, leaving for college, entering the real world?? I'M NOT READY FOR THAT!! I wanna be young, and carefree, and 6 again! I don't want responsibility. I want independence, but not the responsibility that comes with it. Ya know? Don't get me wrong, moving out ASAP after high school graduation is very near the top of my "life to-do list", but I can't say that I won't miss being in high school, and not having to pay for EVERYTHING. It's like yesterday, I was in second grade, worrying about getting to the swingset first at recess, and then I blinked, and here I am, a sixteen-year old junior in high school. High school. Can you believe it? Do you remember when you were in grade school, and you didn't know anyone who was in high school, because they seemed decades older than you? Well, now we're those unknowns!! And it's too crazy for me.



Slow down, World, I WANNA GET OFF!
