too fast for me
so in a little less than 12 hours, i will officially be 18 (i was born @ 11:03 am). and in 4 days i will be heading off to college. it's a new chapter that i know i am excited about, but there is still traces of pain and hurt. like today for instance, i almost balled when my mom was holdin my 2 year old second cousin on her lap stroking her hair and her older brother was just sitting there, watching his auntie stroke his lil sis's hair. it reminded me of when he was young, when i was young. it all just came too fast. this book of life is writing the 18th chapter too soon. i mean, i love the fact that at chapter 18 the character is legal, gets to be considerd an adult, goes to a new place, and even gets a credit card. but chapter 15 through 17 has so much love, drama, and life one could only ask for in another book. i'm really goona miss reading and waiting to see what will happen next for the teenaged character, but now i get to read about how he overcomes obsticales on his own and seeing him reach for all his dreams....and maybe, no not maybe, I KNOW FOR SURE that people from his past will cross his path again. but i know it will be before the 10 year reunion, cause the author would never have the heart to leave out his old buds.
