I wanted to write a post about just everything and it was going to be one of those good feel posts with a little deeper thought and not as intense as last post.

I must have sat here and typed out 3 different things that I wanted to say and its just not coming out the way I want it to.

I realized that I wanted to talk about Life and how fast it flies by. You know that saying "Life is too short" and then I hear that other saying that argues with that..."Life isn't short...its the longest thing there is"..Ok so yeah Life is the longest thing there is but...thats like a smart ass remark. I mean I can't believe I'm almost 20 years old and Almost half way done with college! It goes by way too fast! Its really crazy, I can remember being in Bahamas like it was yesterday--that was 2 years ago!! But then again I look at this way...10 years ago I was 10 years old...that was a LONG TIME AGO and 10 years from now is going to be a LONG TIME from now and its just weird!

I've heard about 2 incidents where people's lives were taken from us this weekend and they were young...one was very very young--it boggles my mind! Life can be short and we don't really get the chance to stop and look around to realize what we have. I'm doing that right now and its hard. I want to accomplish so much in my life and I am making my way there and I hope I am able to fufill my dreams and be able to make something of myself because some people don't get that chance and its sad. I hope you read this and maybe it will change how you think about life and the people around you. Remember shit happens in your life and we may dramatize too much...theres a point where you need to think about how worse life can be. Quit the drama and start being something real --not fake. Drama is a waste of time, its in our lives if we like it or not, it happens when we least expect it but we can end it quickly if we just realize how stupid it is!!

Remember the things that are important...

My one thing right now that I know I need to remember and cherish---is I have the best friends and the best family in the entire world!

I love you guys!

later
