I've got some Diem to Carpe!

In case you are wondering, which you are, Carpe Diem is Latin for 'seize the moment.' The phrase was first introduced to me about a year or so ago, in my seventh grade language arts class. Mr. Gasper, our teacher, had received permission to show us "The Dead Poet's Society" in class. The movie was great, and it's taking all the willpower I have not to shout out the ending, because it's so good! But that is besides the fact, that I, like the makers of Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, think this is a phrase worth living by.
A funny story about this little phrase is that my long time friend and basketball team mate, Beeca, bit me and claimed that she was 'seizing the moment!' Ha! Did I mention she BIT ME!?!?!? No, you probably didn't catch that part did you?
Any who, this summer is my last before high school, I know it, I've grown up so fast! I want to make this summer as enjoyable as possible, because come August reality will wake me every morning with a cold hard slap, that and coffee.... This being the case, I'm resting up for a year of utter happiness, laced with immaturities and some hard times ahead, as I will be part of the first freshman class my school has ever had! Exciting, scary, and down right additive at the same time, kind of like coffee...
My summer will be the best yet, and I plan to keep you filled in as much as possible. I may even keep posting well into the school year if I feel like it.
Enjoy the rest of my posts!

See even God Carpes Diem!
