that we're almost finished... yeah, i know we have another year, but everyone knows that this year is going to fly by faster than all the rest... and then we're gone, off in our own directions.... alone. Maybe not for long, but for some amount of time. Its really hit me that this past year, junior year.. we have all seemed to drift apart a little bit. I dont know if its because of falling in love, maybe because of work, maybe we just all feel that we're too busy anymore... And maybe, that was an excuse for me to use then, but now i feel like we've lost a lot of time together... and kind of taken each other for granted. You guys, my friends, in highschool, outside of moriarty that ive known throughout highschool... you guys made me who i am, and you're people i couldnt forget even if i tried. I am so happy i was born with a big enough brain to have a wonderful memory... cuz i can still remember things from fucking 8th grade. Ahhh... 8th grade. I can remember it like it was yesterday.. which makes things even scarier... because that means the time just flew by. I mean, in that time, ive made more friends, made better friends with the ones i was already friends with, lost some friends, battled crazy rumors, ran through sprinklers at 12 oclock at night, made piles on trampolines, etc. etc. etc. And i know ill make new friends when i move for college.. but what if i dont WANT new ones? hmmm? what then? its almost a nessecity to get new ones. I wish i could clone you all... or maybe shrink you all down, and stick you in my pocket. But, even if it was possible to do that... i know you all have your own paths in life.. we all have to fulfill our dreams. And i wish us all great luck with that. I mean, i feel as though there are a few people that i failed to get close to, a few people that i didnt take the time to STAY close to... and a few people im hoping i will always be close to. Friends have moved, we've made some new ones, and im glad... but like i said, there are things ill never forget. Our senior year, you guys, needs to be amazing. we need to work hard to hang out with each other... im talking to both my friends in moriarty and in albuquerque. I know it'll be hard, we all have different lives, if you will, that we need to tend to, such as work and family, but seriously... what if we never see each other again? i dont want to be the one looking back and thinking "why did i not make an effort?"
