Assignment
1.1
Life can pass anyone by within the snap of
a finger. I myself have witnessed that life has a tremendous way of fooling me
into believing that it seems to be long. Now I am in my last year of high
school, and I realize how fast my life has gone and how fast it will continue
to go.
When I was a little girl, I thought it
would take me forever to reach where I am today. I turned seventeen in May and
getting to this age seemed like a long journey, but in actual fact it went by
quicker than I expected. I believe that my life has gone by so fast because I
am constantly distracted and focused by my present life and future. I am either
worrying about my homework one minute or thinking about how I am going to
present myself at school the next day. There seems to always be something
constantly going on in my mind. There is never a moment in my life where my
mind is just still.
I believe that life is so short, because
people are all busy thinking about what they have to do next, so that before
they know it years have gone by. I am always looking at my calendar and
worrying about the next day. This makes it difficult for me to take time and
enjoy the day. Like myself and many others, I am too obsessed with my everyday
schedule. Now I often think to myself how much time I have wasted worrying and
stressing over nothing. My whole life has just flashed before my very eyes.
