Aaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!

I am absolutely horrified of turning 19 on Wednesday. Because before I turn around, 19 will be gone and 20 and 21 and so on. Getting older stinks. I already hate this, and I'm not even nearing 30 or 40 or...50.
I'm just going to try and enjoy the day. TJ is taking me on a surprise trip somewhere fun but he won't tell me where. I'm hoping that it is shopping, an aquariam, or a zoo, or a new city that we have yet to explore but who knows what he has planned.

People say that these are the best years of your life, but I honestly think that they are also the most horrifying.
I wish I could slow down time. *sigh*

Too bad I can't, but other than being terrified of getting older, I'm happy that I have my salvation, my health, my family, my friends, and all of my other blessings. God is so awesome and has blessed me so much over the last nineteen years and I know he has so much more in store.

Love,

So it's been forever

After some encouragement from Effie, I have decided to post a blog. I didn't realize that it had been over two months since I had posted. My life has just been too frenzied I guess. Anyway...a lot has happened in two months.

• I am finished with my freshman year of college and wow did it fly past!
• I went to the Knoxville Zoo and I saw RED PANDAS!!!! A whole colony of them!
• Seussical finished and Aida started.
• I am reading the Twilight saga. Heehee.

Now to elaborate:

My first year of college was okay...I made a few friends but not as many as I expected. I learned a lot but still, nothing that enriching. I made mostly A's but a couple of B's. I even made a B in piano this semester. I was pretty upset about that, but I guess its my fault for not being as prepared as I should have been. Ughh...I'm starting to worry if this is really what I'm supposed to be doing. Anyway, I don't really want to talk about that anymore. I fell down a flight of stairs the last day of exams but most of you have already heard about that too. I got a new phone after crushing it! I am SO happy that summer is here and I am practicing piano every morning...not the most fun, but necessary. Oh dear.

Next thing I want to talk about is the Zoo! I had not been since I was in the first grade so it was a really nice surprise when TJ said, "Hey, we are taking a trip to the zoo!" I was like YAY!!! They have Red Pandas, my new favorite adorable fluffy animal. I love love love them! I want to be a red panda rescuer because the cute little sweeties are becoming extinct. ANYWAY...I had a really great time at the zoo; I had forgotten how fun they were! I got some fun pictures which you can see here: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2007307&id=1394490129&l=9e8311a9b3

Now I discuss play life. Seussical was a B-L-A-S-T! It was over too quickly though and Aida seemed to be waiting right around the corner. Rehearsals are taking off and I think it is going to be an AWESOME show with a stellar cast! I also got TJ to do the show which makes me happy because he is actually using his talents instead of letting them waste away, silly boy. I think he will enjoy it and I really hope that everyone enjoys this show. First time in a huge theatre...SO EXCITING!!!!

Lastly, I would like to say that after criticizing and laughing at the readers of Twilight, I myself am now a fan. Not quite as creepy as the obsessed 13-15 year old audience, but I do enjoy them very much! Rachel showed me the movie and I knew then that I had to read the books regardless of how much fun I had made of them. I will be starting the third book tomorrow after reading the second one in maybe four days. They fly by and its been awhile since I have found a book that truly captures my attention.

Anyway, that is pretty much my life right now. Goodnight!

Love,

Abishmell
