Growing up

This is something I noticed the other day:

The people I know and love are going off to university, college, sixth form, starting work, having serious relationships etc. I still think of these people as the people I first met. The young, innocent people I knew years ago. People I know and have know for years are going to parties, drinking, having sex etc. These people are my age and when I met most of them, they were 11/12/13/14. It's scary to think how much time has passed in what seems like the short amount of time I've known them. It's scary how much people have changed. Time is moving too fast. I can't get my head around the fact that the kids I knew are becoming adults and so am I. When we were younger, we had all the time in the world. Now, everything is rushed. Everything happens so quickly. There doesn't seem to be time to just meet up with old friends and be together like before. We used to be carefree. Not knowing what was coming next and not caring. Now we still don't know what's next, but we always think about it. It's insane. It seems that time is going faster and faster and we're rushing through everything. We need to slow down and realise that growing up isn't all it's made up to be. It's scary. In a few years everyone I know will be at university or working somewhere. Where does the time go? If we could slow down and just take a moment to realise how much has happened so quickly, I think that everyone would feel the same.

So, if time would slow down, I'd be very grateful.

So, I haven't posted anything on here for quite a while. I don't really have an excuse for not doing so. I guess exams took up some time, but other than that, I've done nothing. I'll do another list of stuff about me, because that's easiest.
