in the real world

because my some of my best friends are the girls i ran cross with, 

a few of them are still in high school. 

i constantly find myself thinking 

" i am SO OLD." 

so much has changed in so little time

my best missionary friend left over a year ago, 

i was in high school, 

i was so certain moving out was going to be so easy, 

the list could go on.

i went to college thinking the same thing.

" i am SO OLD"

then it hit me...

in any of my not freshman classes, i'm the baby.

there is so much for me to learn from those around  me.

those who've been there, done that and everything. 

it's crazy to think that there are people who consider me a baby, when i like to think i'm a big, bad, eighteen year old 

it's not that so much has changed physically..

like i still look the same as i did in high school i think..

senior pictures...

and now 

i look the same i think..

but i think so so SO much of me is so different and i love who i think i'm becoming.

i'm a baby in the real world, and i cannot wait to see who i end up being. 

come what may and love it.
