Time

I feel like I'm always thinking about how fast things are moving. I wake up, get ready, go to school, get home, do homework, sleep, then do it all over again. Things are happening and memories are being made and the future is now the past. It's freaking crazy. I just want to be able to look back and know that I lived my life how I wanted to. I don't want to get so caught up in everything that I forget what's actually happening right in front of me, whats really important. All of this must be a part of growing up. I feel like my days are getting shorter and shorter, and it seems like that comes with age. I guess things really do happen in the blink of an eye, but I wish I would have figured that out a little earlier because I would have taken a lot more pictures and laughed a lot more. I would have taken the time to get to know people, and I wouldn't have been so quick to say no to a lot of things. Now that I've realized this, though, I can really start enjoying life. Probably the worst thing you could do to yourself would be to waste time...and by the time that you realize it's wasted, its going to be hell trying to catch up to it. So I'm trying to focus on the good things, now. Getting my homework done and turning it on time, drinking iced coffee as often as possible, reading at the park. Take your time while doing the things you enjoy, even the little things like that.
