Wow....how the time goes by.

It's crazy to think that I am 17 now....it seems like just yesterday that I was just going to the high school for the first time and being the underclassmen. Now though, I am a junior....almost a senior (in a little over 2 months!!!) and it seems completely crazy!!! The next thing I know it, it will be time for me to graduate and go on to college....how scary!!!! Well...for the birthday thing...it went great! Went out to eat with the boyfriend Logan...then went with him to watch my first rated R movie!!! :) Also I went shopping for a few new shirts and also got my hair highlighted. It felt nice to actually do a few things for me for once and make time for myself. Also.....the most exciting thing was that I got into NHS!!! It is sooo awesome, and I'm so excited. It feels like for the first time in awhile, I can actually be proud of myself.... I didn't think I would actually get it! It's such a honor...and to be the first in my family to get it....well I feel good about it. I just can't believe how much I have changed, faced, and overcome. I feel like I have become a stronger person, and am trying to do better for myself, as well as push myself to show my true potential. :)
