Wow, it is already June 10. It seems like not long ago that it was, well a while ago. One month until my 15th birthday!!! That means one month and a year til I finally get my license. I so cannot wait. I am gonna go on sooo many roadtrips. Well yea, anyway, this makes me realize how fast time actually flies. It makes me appreciate it. I mean I went to POLA only in March. It doesnt seem like it has been that long. Now I am staffing boot camp and going to advanced medical and I'll forget all about lil ole POLA. haha, yea right. But it makes me wonder if what I am doing if it'll actually matter. I barely remeber events that happened that I thought I was going to remember forever. Will I remeber these things, these significant events in my life, when I am older? Here is one of my favorite quotes.

"People are often unreasonable and self centered: forgive them anyway. If you are kind, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives: be kind anyways. If you're successful, you'll win some false friends and some true enemies: succeed anyway. If you're honest and frank, people may cheat you: but be honest anyway. What you spend years building, someone can destroy overnight: build anyway. If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous: be happy anyway. The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow: do good anyway. Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough: give the world the best you've got anyway. You see, in the final analysis, its between you and God, it was never between you and them anyway . . ." -Mother Teresa

and here are some more quotes I luv!

"Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education alone will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. The slogan 'press on' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race."
- Calvin Coolidge

"It matters not if you try and fail and try and fail again; it does matter if you try and fail and fail to try again."
- Babe Ruth

”t is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”- Theodore Roosevelt
