Lifesavers.

Today was my one-and-only little sister's birthday, so HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO HER! 13, and that officially makes me the older sister of a teenager. Wow, there's bumpy ride up ahead for my parents. You think I was a handful...I'll be gone and it'll just be her....man....

So today there was lots of running around, babysitting, reminiscing, charades, and of course...school. Oh that reminds me of something my sister said in the car.

Me: So how was school today?
Sister: What?
Me: School...
Sister: Ohhhhh....see most people just call it prison...I didn't understand you.

The makings of a future cynic. I'm proud.

Anyway anyway anyway, not much to say here. Except I'm not as down now. Because these are the days we should be enjoying...these days before we start the rest of our lives...because once we leave our homes, nothing's gonna be like this ever again. And it just hit me today. I'm never going to be here without knowing that there's somewhere else to call home...how sad is that...I'm morbid. But yeah. So I want to do all I can and just savor this. Because...man I love life for the most part, and I love my family and my friends, and I just want to stay here as much as I hate it for as long as I can. Adolescence is just something you love to hate, you know. Unless you're in one of those super-suburban schools on TV and you're popular. UGH. I'm gonna hit the sack. Goodnight.
