Tears are the summer showers to the soul...

Sometimes, you just need to cry.

Today has been one of those days.

"Perhaps our eyes need to be washed by our tears once in a while, so that we can see life with a clearer view again."

Time flies when you're having fun...

November 1st! Whoop!

I've been looking forward to this month for so long, and now, I'm almost sad that its here.

Two of my best friends, Beth and Rach, are taking me to see Ruthie Henshall in concert in 13 days time. I am so freakin' excited!!!! Ruthie has been an inspiration to me since i was 11 and saw here on the Les Mis TAC DVD that my Mum got me for Christmas. She has such an amazing voice and her stage presence is phenomenal. I was given the tickets in May for my birthday and it seemed so far away, but now its less than two weeks! I also have "Honk!" at the end of the month which is the School Musical in which my year are playing the leads. Ever since year seven I have been in the school shows and each year have got more excited at the prospect of being in Year 13 and being able to audition and maybe even play one of the lead roles. And now its here.

Sometimes, it amazes me how fast time goes. I find myself wishing away the days, the months until something that I'm looking forward to is going to happen. But then, once its here, I never want it to end. It'll sound stupid but, I even panic when the day comes. What if I don't remember the experience properly? What if it doesn't turn out how I want it to? What if it ends to quickly?

I need to try and prevent myself from panicking when these days come and, although I should look forward to special events, I need to stop wishing away the days and months else I'm going to be wishing away my life. I need to enjoy things while they last and when times get hard, remember all the good things that have happened.

"Everything in life is only for now" and therefore, I should enjoy everything while it lasts.
