No Title

Recently I've noticed time passing faster and faster and I wonder when did the day become shorter? Lately, I haven't had the time to stop, slow down and relax. Life has been moving from one place to the next with no down time in between. I'm sure most people's lives are like this, but as a teenager it worries me. Is this what the rest of my life is going to be like? No time for friends or family, or even myself? No time to read a book, watch a show, read the newspaper, or "smell the roses"? High school is a never ending week. I move from class to class to practice to home to dinner to homework to bed. And then the process is repeated.
I watch my parents come home with the same thing (but still different- go to work, work, come home, worry about work, go to sleep). Is this what my life is going to be like? With my schedule I don't have time to worry about much or thank God for what I have. Because at least I have time to pass or time to spend. Some people spend their days alone in a hospital bed. Others are dead. But I never have time to think about this. I want to enjoy life, because life is short. And that is expressed everyday in my "12" hour day.
