Such is Life

In a perfect world…

there would be as many hours in a day as necessary

a blogger wouldn’t go weeks at a time without writing a quality post

her Nikon camera would always be strapped around her shoulders just begging to be used

a Google reader wouldn’t have 700+ posts marked “unread”

a junior in high school wouldn’t spend her last two days of summer vacation babysitting 19 hours (even if it was SUPER fun and with a very sweet girl.. but if school started on Thursday that would be perfect, k?)

5:00 a.m. wake-up calls would not exist

she would be caught up on “Love in the Wild” (on episode 5. newest addiciton)

diet soda wouldn’t have artificial flavorings/preservatives

DVR’s would be near-empty as she would have time to sit down, chill, and watch her favorite show(s)

all gyms would be open 24 hours a day

the stair-master would have a personal T.V.

And lastly..ย 

there would be no such thing as “back to school”

But, such is life. So we take a deep breath, re-focus, and move on.ย 

Junior year starts tomorrow. I’m excited for it to come so it can go and I can finally be a SENIOR!

Love to you all.ย

    In a perfect world, nothing would cost money (coming from a broke college student haha!).

  5. oh wow I never realized you’re in high school! You must’ve maxed out the SAT Writing exam — you write WAY beyond your age/education level! Awesome.

  6. Junior year was a good one! Senior year is better.. definitely something to look forward too ๐Ÿ™‚ In a perfect world we wouldn’t have to go to school, work, or do things we didn’t like. ::sigh:: if only!

  7. in a perfect world …. colleges would just give me my master’s degree and i would be done with it! and full time jobs would only last 15 hours a week so that i could spend all my time hiking, biking, and enjoying the sunshine … and it would be sunshine all year long! ๐Ÿ™‚

  8. I can definitely agree with all of those! I was addicted to love in the wild, wish it wasn’t over already!!

    you are going to rock your junior year and then you’ll rule the school as a big bad senior, woop woop!

  14. In a perfect world I would love my job every day, and make about twice as much ๐Ÿ™‚ But hey, the world is close to perfect when it comes to my job, so I can’t complain.
    Don’t wish for your junior year to pass too fast, because before you know it college will be over, and trust me, those are some of the BEST years!! ENJOY!

  15. oh i would have hit read all on that reader and started fresh. Your busy livin’ life! Back to school is only good for one day, right? haha.

    in a perfect world, I would have money to go out and do more “New Yorky” things and have an apartment in the East Village.

    Guess it all takes time though to get what we want!
