Don't Blink

I have never really payed much attention to people when they talk about how time passes so quickly. Since the beginning of my freshman year all I could ever think about is how I wanted time to fly by so I could graduate and be out in the real world, on my own. Well, I am a senior now, and graduation is 29 days away and quite frankly I want everything to SLOW way down! The realization that I will be leaving my family, my home, and my friends has hit me pretty hard. They forget to tell you at a young age that you need to slow down and enjoy the little things in life, because one day your 8 years old and then you blink and your 18 and graduating high school.. Don't get me wrong I am super excited about my future and to experience new things in life, but I wish it wasn't all happening so quickly. However, the future is coming and I better be ready for it because if I have learned anything at all throughout my 18 years, it is that time goes by so quickly and I want to enjoy every bit of the next chapter of my life!
