how time flies...

Don't you hate it when you wake up and realize that everything you've ever known is about to change forever? All those little things that went under the radar until now: my big sister discussing university plans, what car she'd like, how much a flat in the city would cost - and then it all comes together way to fast and you start to wonder if you missed something. It's strange, thinking that my only sibling - but also my rock and my best friend - is now about to leave me for the big, wide world. The fact that I won't see her walking the corridors of our high school, that she won't be sleeping in the room next to mine, is terrifying.

It's funny, because I know in the end, it'll be little things that I miss. The homemade pancakes on Saturday morning, the immature nobody-else-would-understand jokes, and the movie nights when we cosey up under duvets in the living room and eat Ben & Jerry's ice cream like our life depended on it. 

It's not that I am oblivious to the fact that things do change, it's the fact that I'm always going to wonder: did we make the most of the time we had?
