The August Effect

This week I picked up my registration forms for school. So, I spent yesterday filling them out and asking my parents to sign a multitude of papers. As this happens every year, I'm glad to say that I only have to do it one more time next year. Filling out registration papers only remind me that school is slowly creeping up around the corner and that my summer is coming to an end. Soon I'll be waking up at 6:30 in the morning instead of sleeping in, being at school instead of being at home on the internet, and staying up late to finish homework instead of watching late night sitcoms.

Also, considering this year will be full of stressful things like SATs and college applications, I'm starting to realize I'm going to have to grow up sooner or later. I'm still excited none-the-less. I have a feeling this year is going to be an interesting one. Gah...which reminds me, I still need to go back-to-school clothes shopping. At least I managed to slowly start that by buying two new shirts this week from Forever21.

Along with clothes, I need a new school bag. My bag from last year is slowly falling apart! I seriously need to hit the mall within the next 3 weeks! I guess I'll leave you with a picture which I found on tumblr that pretty much explains what I'm feeling right now about summer slowly ending.
