School started today. I enjoyed all my classes and didn't find anything too awful about this upcoming school year. it's strange being a senior... but I like it.
tonight I found myself starting to apply to college.
and I ask myself the timeless question asked by many great people before me:
where has all the time gone?
why does it seem like it was only yesterday
that I was just getting my license,
that I was walking into high school for the first time,
that I was learning how to multiply fractions,
that I was showing up to a cross country practice for the first time ever,
that I was telling my mom that she didn't know how to dress 5 year olds like myself.
all these events are many that make up my life and have been tucked away in the safe haven of memories in my head, yet they seem so close. Time has just flown by.
These memories have grown even more precious to me as I look ahead into the realms of the unknown (aka college) and feel excitment tinged with a bit of fear.
but in the words of Eleanor Roosevelt, "you should do one thing each day that scares you"
so the circle of life continues to spin on
as I apply to college and prepare for nothing short of
the. rest. of. my. life.
here we go.
