hey all!
i cannot believe that 2016 is almost over. even though we only have two days left, it feels like we should have much longer left in the year i mean we are 364/366 (because we had leap year this year) so i don’t really know how its almost over. i mean time flies,
i mean time flies, this year, my sister graduated, i turned 16, became an upper classman, learned how to drive and my sister went to college. i mean i have basically had such a crazy busy year.
