Some Things Never Change
One would think that at some point I would grow out of some "childish" things in my life. But that doesn't seem to be happening to me! I know I'm only 17 (18 in about a week and a half!! Yay for me) but still I would have thought I'd be a bit more mature then I am. Let me explain where all this is coming from. I have a job that makes me get up every morning and go to work. It's a very grown up thing for me to be doing, but still here I sit praying that it snows tonight so that I won't have to go to work tomorrow. This I'm afraid is something that I probably won't grow out of for a very long time. And that might not be so bad because I think it's important to stay in touch with one's inner child. So yeah be praying for snow because I for one would really like to sleep in!!!

Scary
I've officially decided that growing up is scary. After my other post and me ranting about wanting to do it so badly I feel a little silly saying that now I'm scared of it. Don't get me wrong, I'm still really excited about the prospect of growing up and becoming more of an adult, but it's a little daunting at times. Since my last post a lot of things have happened, including probably getting a new job where I'll be working full time, and agreeing to move in with my cousin Heather. I'm really excited about both because number one, living with Heather should be really fun and I will have my own apartment!!!! And two the job will bring me a lot more money and I'll be learning something new. So yeah all in all I think my life is getting more interesting and much more grown up. I just can't help being a little scared to "leave the nest", and part of me doesn't think that I'm totally ready yet. It's good to know that my parents will be living about ten minutes away and will be there whenever I need them. Plus God is always here when I'm scared to help. I guess when I said new beginnings seems to be the theme for 2005 I wasn't kidding!!
