you know, sometimes it seems things go by too quickly. We're so busy watching out for what's just ahead of us, that we don't take the time to enjoy where we are. Days go by so fast and we hardly even notice them.
Life becomes a blur..
Often, it takes some calamity to make us live in the present.
Then suddenly, we wake up and see all the mistakes we've made, but it's too late to change anything.
It's like _____.

I was readING this in my bed one night, trying to make myself fall to sleep. It was from Calvin & Hobbes, one of my favorite all time comics, next to the Peanut Gang (Charlie Brown & Snoopy)
While reading this and reflecting on it, it really made me think how days go by so fast and we don't even notice them. Sitting in class for an hour and 30mins seems so remote and endless, but in reality, you can do such little things in an hour.
12 months a year, 52 weeks, 365 days a year, 8,766 hours a year, and 525,950 minutes a year.
These numbers make you think a year seems like such a long time. But think back and remember the events that took place in your life. Such as 9/11/01. That was almost 9 years ago... when i was in the third grade of my elementary years. Seems like it was only 2 years ago (to me). My Allstar Days in church. that was 5 years ago. I remember all my friends coming to church at the break of dawn reading the bible, ballin', going out to eat, going to pcbang, guitar, making up our own games to lose some time, and bumming at church till we can barely have the energy to walk. Oh the memories...
I am now 16 years old, going to be 17 in december. In my life span of 17 years, i probably made 100,000,000 mistakes in my life, and i can't go back to change them...
I wish i could go back in time and start dribbling basketball at the age of 5 so i can be 10 times skillful than i am now..
i wish i could go back in time and actually study and do my homework and not be stuck in this stressful situation i'm in rightnow..
i wish i could go back in time to stand up for myself and build confidence..
i wish i could go back in time and build more friendships..
i wish i could go back in time and actually stop my mom and dad from divorcing instead of sitting and crying to myself..
i wish i could go back in time and live everyday, second of my life to the fullest.
i wish i could go back and change everything
...regret..
I know this is a long blog for a first, but i thought it was a good topic to write about.
Thanks for reading.
