Are you kidding me?!

It's already AUGUST!?

I can't believe it! 

It seems like only yesterday 2010 began,

and now it's more than halfway over. 

Everyone is growing up.

My Best friend/ unbiological sister, Samantha is now 16!

One of my other Best friends Micah, just turned 18, 

Mallory is turning 17 in a few weeks,

Evan will be 18 in September,

My brother is now a TEENAGER *shudder*

(he turned 13 in March).

2 good friends of mine now have husbands.

A close friend of mine is leaving for college in a few days, 

and I'm going to miss them greatly. 

And the saddest change of all, 

My precious baby Sister is going to be 7 in September. 

She is starting FIRST GRADE in a week!!

I think I'm more torn up about this than my mother. 

I remember last year on the first day of school I couldn't even enjoy my first day of being a Junior because I was sad and incredibly worried about how my sisters first day of kindergarten was.

Ugh... I can't imagine what my first day of Senior year is going to be like.

............................

SENIOR. YEAR.

It sounds so surreal to say it. 

I almost don't believe it.

Everyone I've run into this summer says, "Are you ready for your senior year?"

NO.

I'm not. 

Becuase the first day will soon progress to fall break

which will progress to thanksgiving break,

which will progress to Christmas break,

(Over which I will be turning 18!!)

which will lead to January of 2011!!!!

Everything starts happening after January.

All State Choir, 

Musicals,

Senior Tea,

Senior Banquets,

Senior Prom!!,

Graduation.

And all the happenings that happen in between.

Ugh... My head is spinning. 

I'm going to work.
