Life ---- Speeding By Way To Fast -------->

I have to say. This whole growing up thing is kinda hard.
Its only been a couple days since I have applied for college and I have already decided which one I will be attending next fall.
All of these decisions are coming right at me, full speed ahead. After all, I am a stop-and-smell-the-roses kind of girl. Funny thing is, at the most random times I feel like life is going by WAY to slow. Like in math class, or waiting in line at Ross.
Point is: if you can manage time (because really, no one can control time except God of course), you have found the answer to everything. President Monson really knows what he is talking about when it comes to finding the Joy in the Journey.
But the new year is rapidly approaching. Like two days till we are there people!
But you all know my birthday is tomorrow!! I am stoked.
Why?
1. I'm turning 18.
2. I'm turning 18.
3. I'm turning 18.

Obviously you can see how much this is affecting me:)
But in all reality 18 is just a number.
