June 18th

....
I am going to college. Yes, the day every teacher, mom, dad, and child talks about from the first day of blessed kindergarden actually has a date. Its in the books. June 18th..

June 18th.

Juuuunnnne 18TH!


excited, nervous, anxious, reluctant... I feel it all.

Question.. Am I ready?

Answer... I won't know... until June 18th. ;)

growed up

I tried to talk to my old friend
Mr. Monster under the bed
I said
"Hey maybe would you think about moving back in?"

I talked to the Dark that night too 
But no matter what he just sat there, faded
telling me to go to sleep
too tired to play tricks 

I thought back to those evil timed tests in 3rd grade
multiplication, problem after problem
getting turned inside out
as the timer went tick-tock in my head.

Its just not the same now
There is nothing under the bed
no creepy shadows in the distance
no tests on multiplication!

I guess its time to realize something...
Mr. Monster has moved on
and life just keeps on moving with him.
