Tick Tock.

Time waits for no man. How true that is. How often do you feel like time has flown? You've had so much time but achieved so little? The year has flown by really fast and now its the end of April. Amazing. The years have flown by so fast and now I'm in my twenties. It just seemed like yesterday I was running around in school, stressing about major exams such as GCSE's, TEE's and uni exams when in reality looking back seems to be just another step through life and to where I am right now. Soon, another decade will pass and then another one and another one and I wonder how I'll end up. Will I regret anything? Will I be content and happy? I sure hope so. All those unfulfilled dreams and achievements I hope will one day come to fruition. There's just so much I want to do but yet so little time. Well it feels like it anyway. Time really has flown. I miss the good old carefree days. The days where your parents mapped out your life for you, where they told you what to do, thought for you, made you achieve what they wanted you to achieve. The days where there just seemed to be nothing bothering you, nothing stressing you out, nothing to think about. The times where you just ran, biked, swam, skated and had fun. The times you appreciate all the simple things. Things such as wind in your hair, the sunshine, clean and crisp smelling air, the sand beneath your toes getting squished, sticking your tongue out under falling snow, disneyland, splashing in puddles in the back garden everytime it rained. The simple things in life. I miss childhood. Now of course it's completely different. Rarely do you get times to appreciate the simple things because you are always worrying about other things. People take up time, Dreams and ambitions take up time, Life takes up time. It's so draining. It never used to feel like this when I was young. And yet time moves on. We all grow up. The clock is ticking, how do you maximise your time? How do you prioritise? I'll sit down and work it out soon when I have more time. I love my life though. I wouldn't trade it for another, I have no regrets thus far. I've learnt through my mistakes and failures. I hope I have. I hope I've changed and grown up though. Otherwise I hope I do it soon. :)
