Things Are Changing, But It's For The Better (Sorry I'm late!)

Lately, I've been having to do a lot of stuff involving high school, and it's got me really excited. I can't wait to go to a new school where I can meet new people, and do new things, join clubs, take new classes, I just can't wait. Next year, I'm going to be taking things like clothing, painting, orchestra, Spanish 2 (which I'm not the most excited about) and of course the required things. I am really excited to go to a new school, but at the same time I'm really bummed. Next year, a lot of my friends will be going to a different high school than me, because our Junior High filters into two high schools. It's a bummer really. I'm happy that they are excited for their school, but I wish that I could just take them all with me, so that we wouldn't get split up. I'm hoping though, that we're close enough that our friendships won't break, but we'll see. I can only hope for the best.
I can't believe that I'm a freshman this year, it just doesn't seem right, and then on top of that, this fall I will be a sophomore... It's Crazy! If feels like just yesterday that I was starting my 1st day of 7th grade, like only yesterday I was getting lost in an extremely simple school. I kind of miss the simpleness of it. Just 3 years ago I was in the final months of elementary. It seems so crazy to think that I've grown up so much from then. Since then, I have learned so many new things, and met so many new people. I'm so grateful for what I have today. Every time I wish things were different, that I could change something, I think about how every person who has hurt me, has made me stronger, and how I am so lucky to have the life that I do. It's hard to want something else. Yet, I still do, and it makes me feel selfish sometimes, but then I realize that it's not like I can change things, and in the end, I don't think I would honestly want to. Anyway, back to the original topic: High School.
I can't believe that this year I am going to start driving, and eventually have my license. I feel like things are changing so fast, and it actually kind of makes me laugh. I think about how silly my sisters and I used to be, and how we still are, but in different ways. It's funny to look at how much people change, and grow over such a short amount of time. Once upon a time, the biggest thing we would fight about was a plastic barbie locker, and now we all have such different schedules, that we don't often get time when everyone is home. It just amazes me how things change. Thinking about how I will be in high school later this year does make me nervous, but it makes me excited, and I can't wait. I used to be afraid of change, and I still kind of am, but this is going to be good, and if it's not, I'll make it be good. :)
