20

i turned 20 on wednesday and had a very wet celebration, if that could be considered one. the weeks have been blazing by in a big blur and it's already my 8th week here. it's at least another 25 more weeks before i'm out.

i realised that it's not exactly a good thing that everything feels so fast now, because this is actually my life that is zooming past. my precious youth that is disappearing by the day, and to think i was happy that the days were moving so quickly.

in a little while we'll all be staring in the face of 2009 and that'll be yet another year gone by. i know i always say this, but 2008 really feels like it was gone by in a flash, because i only feel that i've lived for 6 months and spent the rest of the year living on weekends. that's around 70 days, including holidays from july to december. so i've only been living for 6 months and 70 days, that's why the year is so short.

i'm trying to think of something i did in 2008 that can make the year seem more worthwhile, maybe something that i've missed out or something that i did but can't recall anymore, anything that can make it seem that the year wasn't so completely wasted.

but no, there's nothing. which means that i have just under 2 months to save the year or it'll be such a shame.
