I swear it seems like last week it was September and warm outside, then it was fall and here I am sitting at the computer realizing that October is half way over with. This is my particular favorite due to Halloween but it seems I have had seldom time to enjoy that as well this year. I guess that is what happens when my entire life is basically just work, and school. It is times like this when I feel like life is passing me by, that may or may not be the case. But damn if this year hasn't been going by quickly. Before long it will be 2010, and a whole new year will begin. I don't want to see that year go by in a flash and be back in the same spot all over again.
After this semester I need to seriously think of way to go on a vacation, after peak season is over and done with I will have two weeks paid vacation and maybe, just maybe, I can manage to go and see Gettysburg. It would be nice to see it seeing how the last time I was there I could not have been over 12 years old.
If there is one thing this year has taught me is that I need to do what scares me, whether that be traveling alone or even going down to see the Ocean during the weekend, and though I may not see Europe for some time that should not stop me from seeing the country that I live in. All I have to do is go one step at a time. If I want something bad enough I have to work hard enough to get there.

It's not really that weird.
When you are 5 years old, one year accounts for 1/5th of your entire life. When you are 20 years old, one year accounts for 1/20th of you entire life.
It's the same amount of time, but it feels relatively shorter the older you are.

I totally agree with you, sometimes I wonder where all the time has gone, it's almost the end of the year! (almost Melbourne Cup carnival time too)

That's exactly right. And yeah it does feel like it's going far too fast.
I think there is too many memories once you're an adult and it's overloading that's why time flies so fast, unlike when we were kids.. (man can't express myself properly)
