| As the summer is dying down, fall taking it's place, I can sense something looming amongst me. Now maybe I'm being over literate but I kid you not, I feel it! As if I'm about to "turn that corner" and I'm pretty sure I know what to expect but I'm not certain. School has offically arrived and now I'm ready to handle the battle against procrastination VS homework. Hopefully I'll handle it a bit better then I did last year ,but at the same time I believe I'm more prepared then I was last year as well. Perhaps one of the biggest change I faced this summer was my random love of running [only God knows how much I hated running.] I'm now taking part in several races and cross country in exchange for volleyball. After 4 years and a 4th place state title, it feels kind of weird but right at the same time. I can only hope the love won't fade, which I'm not expecting it to. In fact, I hope to go on to running year around and next year, in October, run a marathon ,but we just got to take it months at a time! This summer was definately a busy one, but a very productive at the same time. It's been one of the best but I can't help to think that I have a bit of damage control. After trying to balence running, family, work, volleyball, church [-cough- I spent a combined month of my summer doing church-related things =)], and odd ball things, I can't help to feel like I neglected some of my friends. I'm looking forward to football games, parties, bonfires, and sleepovers. In approx. 110 days - I swear it was 125 days not to long ago!- I will get my licnese - I'm NOT counting down, my ipod is =]- Then I'll be getting a job, and hopefully, I'll have tons of hours so I can make bank! And go on a shopping spree. Like I need one... Actually I do. But I have a lot of clothes.. anyways. At this time, I'll be balence... [dun dun dunnn] friends, family, running, job, homework., more then likely, a ton of chorse and A LIFE! Ohh but don't forget I really value my alone time and my relaxation time. That can be anywhere from long runs, to a nice night alone, just me, my TV, and my nice fluffy couch in my basement, to 1am showers and long conversations on IM. It's what I love most. I'm not complaining. To tell you the truth, I can almost say I'm looking forward to the next few months, but I can definately wait. I can't say I'm ready to return to the insanity of being a teenage girl in her sophmore year [What?! thats a whole other blog itself] But I'm up for the adventure.
