Oh Senior Year...

So I have heard people say "Don't wish your life away!" and "Oh your senior will fly by!" and at first I was like oh they are just saying that... But I just realized they know what they are talking about! The first six weeks of my senior year are already over which means with only have eleven weeks until the first semester is OVER! I can't believe it!! I have realized a lot of things these past few weeks as I have been trying to just take it all in. I realized that I don't know a lot of the people that I have passed in the halls these last few weeks. Today I realized that when my foreign exchange friend leaves I will probably never see her again and I started to cry! And then tonight I was looking for pictures to put in the year book and it took me back to the days when i was really little! But the weird thing is all of these days seem like they were just yesterday! I also realized tonight that it is hard talking to kids... I had to share about my trip to Honduras with the Awana kids and it was SO hard! I had to explain SO MUCH to them because I forget they don't know what words like "testimony" mean! Tonight I also learned that Father has blessed me with some amazing friends that mean the world to me and that I will really miss when we graduate. My friend Jeremy went with me to brookshires because we both had to get gas and he put the gas in for me! We have had some great conversations these past few years and sometimes I forget how blessed I am to have friends like him! I guess my whole point in sharing this is that we need to take more time to stop and enjoy the present instead of waiting around for the future! So that's about all haha
