The Beginning of One, The End of Another

It's almost the end of the year. Many are excited for Summer, I can't deny that I have been counting the minutes. But, when have you thought, I mean really thought, about it? When a new year starts, you'll be in a different grade, possibly a different school, and much more different things.

You are leaving behind one thing, and starting a new thing. The beginning of one, the end of another. In a way, it's kind of sad. Maybe I should go to Never Land and go with Peter Pan and the Lost Boys! Come one, I bet you wish you could go to Never Land at some point! Leaving memories can really be sad.

I don't know if any of you are like this, but I don't adjust to change easily at all. I don't have the mentality to adapt! It's really hard for me to get used to something. Give me a year, and I still don't like it. But there are so many great things that happened to me, it's hard to say goodbye to them.

That's why, we truly need to appreciate the moment, because we don't know how much time we have. We don't know how long we will be blessed. It's going to be hard for me to move on, but I guess, like is about change and taking risks. Life was made to live it! We should all live it the best way that we can.

Stress

As many students know, finals are coming up. For middle schoolers, well, at my school, they are called the EOG's (end of grade testing). I am up to here (imagine me raising my hand) in studying, homework, projects, etc.

I always thought the end of the year was supposed to be easier. In elementary school, the end of the year was the easiest by far. Middle school is WAY different. I am sure many of us have figured that out by now. I just want it all to be over, so this weight can be lifted off my chest!

Good luck to anyone who is studying for finals, EOG's, and what not!

Sleepless

Well, I was trying to get an afternoon nap, after having one sleepless night. It started when people the home owners association hired came. They were mowing the lawns. In a failed act to block that noise, I put on some calming William Ackerman music.
Many people would think that this would help! Nope! Well, a little later, they FINALLY LEFT. This is something that would happen in movies! Obviously, after you mow a lawn, you must blow away all the excess grass. So, they had leaf blowers, and they were blowing all the grass away. I could hear them all the way around the sub division.
They must have been doing that for at least half an hour. Having turned off the music already, I thought they were finally done, so I turned on the music again. I hope this makes you laugh so hard, you fly off your seat. The waste industries people come. They have this giant truck, that makes noise you can hear 50 miles away! I stood ten more minutes of this. I finally gave up. That was some nap! Then, I came down here and wrote this post!

People, if you ever try to take an afternoon nap, be aware of garbage days, mowing days, and blower days!
