SO yeah it's been forever and a day since I last updated. Here it is already August....where has the time gone????? I start my freshman year at the UofM on the 29th. On my graduation I thought I had tons of time but it's like everything was fastforwarded or something. blah...

But here I sit...on my living room couch...online! it's so FUN! I bought a laptop with my OWN money for $900! It's a gateway with wireless...very cool. I'm on my couch. That is awesome. It's my first big purchase too! Next is to start paying my dad for my car...

It's been a crazy summer. One that really makes you wonder why we're here and what we're meant to do. Life is so short...time just flies by and yet we still procrastinate until tomorrow when tomorrow might not even be there. No matter what age...young or old...death is sudden. And yet our faith tells us that death is only the beginning of NEW life. Life which doesn't fly by. Where death cannot touch us. I can't wait for that. Weell i guess i CAN but you know what I mean. I dunno I've just been thinking about all this lately. Yesterday was my dad's 47th birthday. It wasthe first time I really thought wow he's getting OLD. lol:) He's not old at heart though..haha. But it really scared me because I started thinking about how much my family truly means to me and how short a time we have left being all here at home with eachother. Before we know it my parents will be oldER and grayER and we'll be moved out and on with our own lives. As much as I want to grow up, I think I don't want to grow up either. It's scary how quickly time passes and how things can change in just 8 months.

Yeah. So that's my deepish entry for the day. I'll try to start updating more...lol...and maybe you'll get to hear more of my deep side....:)

I heart you all! God bless, Alicia
