How is it almost July 1st? When did that happen? I feel like it was just Christmas day! This is scary. I know time flies, and the older you get, the faster it goes. If it's going this fast now, what will happen in 10 years? Or 20, or 30? I feel like I'll blink and my life will be over.
This past month has been filled with fun, since my sister Becky has been back in the States on home leave. We've gone to the shore for a week, had cookouts at home, gone to Knoebels for a day, gone out to eat more times than I can count, watched movies, played games.... it's been fun, and it's only going to continue this weekend! This Thursday, Beck and Britt are coming up to Philly and we're going out to dinner, and then Friday Beck and I are going to a bbque at our friend Christina's house. Saturday is our family's 4th of July cookout, and Sunday, my sisters and I are going to the Kutztown Folk Festival. Honestly, though I've lived right outside Kutztown my whole life (well, at least my parents have) I don't think I've ever gone to the festival even once. But it'll be fun to go back to my roots- I'm getting too citified, being so close to Philly. I'm hoping the Main Line snobbery isn't rubbing off on me. Though even if it did, I'm too poor to be much of a snob anyhow. One city aspect that HAS rubbed off on me is my driving though. I'm the classic impatient crazy city driver and my family gives me flak for it CONSTANTLY. :P
Anyway, this should be one busy, fun filled weekend, and then next weekend is our family reunion, which I'm looking forward to. The only sad thing is that Beck will be leaving to go overseas again a day or two after the reunion. :( I don't even want to think about it. I hate saying goodbye to her. It's so hard, and it will be especially harder now since she's been home for a longer time. I'll have to get used to missing her all over again. Used to not being able to call her whenever I want, used to not seeing her at family events, used to not being able to shop or go out to dinner or the movies with her when I'm feeling down. It sucks. :( At least Britty is still here with me, though. That makes it a lot easier. If Beck was my only sibling, I'd REALLY fall apart when she left.
Anyway, I don't want to think about that for now. I'm going to focus on the positive, and that is this coming weekend. Yay! Two more days till fun time!
A Pretty Good Year
