I've always heard the expression, "Time flies by when you're having fun." This has always been proven true in my life, but time seems to fly even when I'm not having fun. Maybe I never realized it, since I wasn't always doing something that I enjoyed, but I started to this year (school year).
It feels like just yesterday I was walking into my first grade classroom, nervous about the people, the school, and my teacher. Now I'm walking confidently through the halls of a high school everday, going on as if I've been there forever. I guess that's a good thing, since it means I've gotten used to the whole change easily, but it also makes me feel a little sad.
It's funny; I used to dream about being "older" when I was really young, thinking about how great it would be when I got to a certain age, that I could do whatever I wanted. I guess, in some aspects, I still think that way, but the prospect of getting to be an adult is sort of daunting. It scares me that soon I'll have to be making my own desicions, not that I don't already, without the background influence of my parents.
I'll just have to make my last few years of youth worthwile. :]
