i feel senior year dissolving before my eyes.

where has the time gone? it seems like only a day ago i was starting at my high school and now, in less than 3 months, i'll be leaving it forever for bigger and better things. recently, i've been thinking about just how short of a time i'll get to spend in my familiar halls with the people i've grown to love over these last four years. i think about how i'll miss the caesar salads on mondays and my daily chorus class filled with chorus nerds. i think about all the people who have already graduated and how i'm next on the list to walk down the aisle of the cathedral to the slow pace of pomp and circumstance.

in advanced women's chorus tonight, i looked at the freshmen. they look so young. it's so hard for me to believe that i looked that young when i first came to spalding. they all have the same faces of fear mixed with the feeling of newness i knew all too well at their stage of the journey. do they know what sort of crazy ride they're in for? do they know that they should treasure the time they have at this amazing school? i honestly hope they do. because it goes by in the blink of an eye. and once you blink, it's all gone.

i love you.
