"One day, you’re 17 and you’re planning for someday. And then quietly, without you ever really noticing, someday is today. And then someday is yesterday. And this is your life."

I have a distinct memory of the first day of second semester as a freshman. I don’t remember who I was talking to, but I remember picking up my second semester schedule and saying that we were officially one-eighth of the way done with high school. Tomorrow when I pick my second semester schedule up, I will be doing so as a second semester senior. Seven-eighths down, one-eighth to go. It is really quite strange how time passes.

So when will it be my turn to have a cuddle buddy?
