Time

   On Friday me and my mom took my cousin, who lived with us for 4 years, to college in Redding. It seems like yesterday that he was moving in with us. It's funny how time can just fly by so fast sometimes and you don't really know it until something big is happening, like your cousin, who is really like your brother  going away to college.
   When we got to the dorms we unpacked all of his things from the car and put everything in his room. After everything was in his room we went and got his books and walked around the campus. The campus was small because it's a private university and there are only a little over a 1,000 students. The campus was really pretty and had a lot of trees.
   By the end of the day my cousin was all set up for school and knew where to go for his classes.  When we were saying goodbye I realized that it may seem like you have all the time in the world to do or say something but then all of a sudden that time is gone. 
   When I think about it I believe we should say what we want to say to someone before it is too late or something happens were you don't see them any more. We should all do things we dream of like going skydiving, befofre time slips away.  Time is a valuable thing that shouldn't be taken for granted.

  1. I would love for you to "show" us the campus. Instead of saying it was small or had trees, paint us a picture of it. Imagine you were describing it to someone who couldn't see. What words would you use?
