Finals are coming. Fast. They will come fast and go fast. Time scares me sometimes... it never takes a rest. I remember being in elementary school waiting, first of all, for Christmas break... then the second Christmas was over I would start counting down until summer. I was never terribly patient. This continues to be, and I fear will always be, a great downfall of mine. My inability to be patient has changed from days until a break to specific situations (a.k.a. people). Time goes way too fast for me to count down much of anything... except for England. 40 days. No matter how much I feel I can't wait for the next 40 days to go by, I just want to enjoy them. The faster they fly by, the faster my five months in England will fly by. I want nothing more than to enjoy the here and now.
Right here, right now, I am able to enjoy time with my friends between preparing for finals week and sleeping as much as possible (I have a cold and am dedicated to kicking it's butt before my finals begin). In a couple weeks, after I move back to my parents house, I will be able to enjoy time with family and friends between working and drinking coffee... which both are able to be done with friends a great deal of the time. I am blessed with the ability to travel with wonderful friends and I feel so lucky to have such an amazing opportunity that allowed me to meet some wonderful girls! That 8 hour flight will be a breeze!
Time is too short to wish it away! My hope is to enjoy every moment and that you will do the same!
