It's over... Holy Moly!!!

Wow, it's been a long time since I've written anything... which I suppose is okay, because it means I've been spending time on other things like schoolwork. HAHAHA. Not really. I've spent most of the past couple months praying for summer, and like a thief in the night, it's sneaked up on me! [Note: apparently 'snuck' is not a word... i put that instead of 'sneaked' the first time, and it came up on my spell check. Weird. It should be a word. It sounds better anyway...] I cannot believe that my first year of college is one final from being over. It seems like it's gone by so fast, and that terrifies me, because it means the next three years will go by just as fast. This means that I will eventually have to grow up and become a hardworking member of society with a real job. I don't know how I feel about this whole growing up thing; it's somewhat horrifying. I look at my mom, who has been married for nearly 24 years... and I think, "wow, that could be me in five years (well, not the 24 year thing, but the married thing)." I guess I go through this thought process every year at about this time, when I realize that I'm not going to be a kid forever. I suppose I'm slowly becoming more accepting of this, but it hasn't quite fully set in. Maybe in three years when I'm graduating (hopefully) or whenever I happen to get married I'll be okay with everything. I just wish I was a little more prepared for what life is constantly throwing at me...
