If only life stood still...

Man, I am realizing more and more every day that life doesn't know what the word "chill" means. Things are always so busy, crazy and hectic. Although alot of the pressures are self induced, they still add up over time. What was I thinking taking 18 credits at school and working almost full time?!? It sure is worth it though. I have been learning so much and I am realizing that all of this education, if nothing else, makes me feel good because I know that I am accomplishing something.
Also, another thing I have relized is that although life is always moving in the fast lane, it is good to stop every one in a while and take a rest stop. Alhough it is nice to stay busy with school, work, friends, boys, letters, etc. it is also good to have a quiet moment to myself every once in a while. I used to hate being alone. Now I cherish those quiet moments. Hopefully in the near future though life will slow down ever so slightly so that instead of seeing everything pass by, I will be able to afford to stop and admire everyhting around me.
