Random thoughts for today

My niece just turned 1 on Sunday. It made me start thinking about how old I'm turning this year. 20. That's how old I'm turning. I know that that's not old at all. I'm still very young. It's just weird because it seems like it was just a year or so ago when I was 15. I was still trying to decide what I wanted to do with my life. Whether I wanted to go to college or not.


It seems like time flies by so quickly. One day you're 10 with not a care in the world and then all of the sudden your 19, 20 looking towards the future. What it is you want to do? Who you're going to marry? If you're going to get married? If you're going to have children or not?


I know, I know. I'm getting a little ahead of myself. I still have years and years left to come. That is if I don't die in some "freak gasoline accident" (quoting zoolander for those of you who wanted to know). I wonder how many people think about this stuff? Am I the only one? Probably not.


All of this started just because my niece's birthday was Sunday. We threw a party for her, even though she's not going to remember it. It was more for the adults anyway. To see how big the kids are getting (and how old they're getting). To catch up on what's going on in each other's lives, and talk about how cute the children are. Also to eat some free food. Well that's at least why I go to these things (just joking.... maybe).

Today was my second day of classes. I had to take a lot of notes in my English class (my hand started to cramp up). There is also a lot of reading that I have to do. At least for me. Because I was homeschooled my whole life. Most of what I read was fantasy so it's very hard for me to read the assigned book. I was really looking forward to my Math class. When I went to class there was a note on the door telling everyone that class was canceled for the day. I was really sad.

On another note. Remember when I said my wallet was stolen and I had to go renew things like my Student ID and my license? Well I went to the DMV the next day; which was a Thursday. It was raining REALLY hard that day (I love the rain) and there was actually a long line. I thought that no one was going to be there because it was raining so hard but apparently I was wrong. My mom and I got in line. We had to stand in the rain because the line went all the way outside. Fortunately we had an umbrella. We're standing there and all of the sudden a man decided he wanted to come under the umbrella with us. He started talking to us and we told him about how my wallet was stolen. He was shocked that someone would do such a thing. His son decided he didn't want to wait in line anymore so they left. A DMV worker came out to inform us that all the computers were down, statewide, and they weren't sure when they would be working again. My mom and I decided that we would wait a little longer just to see if the computers would start working again. They didn't so we left.

I went back today with my sister Hannah the hot one (so she says). Since I really do miss driving myself. It was really, really busy so we decided that I would go back tomorrow with my mom.
