I haven't blogged in a while have I?
Now that I think about it I haven't really done anything.....
I'm going to school tomorrow. Just simple summer lessons. Nothing big. I actually want to go.
My house is killing me softly.
Or maybe I should say the people in my house?
Yeah. That makes more sense.
I miss my sister. She went off to camp for the week. So did Theo. And my cousin.
So I'm left with my baby bitch of a sister and a non-listening overly over protective father.
Since summer has started I have been longing for school. Isn't that weird? A 14 year old kid longing for school. Crazy,I know.
I really miss my friends. I grew so use to seeing them everyday I completely took it for granted.
But I'll have to get use to it. I'm going into high school and I'm only in college classes. Whereas most of my friends are in honors. I wish I was as smart as them.
I hope I don't lose them.
I understand it would be pretty hard to lose them. They are stubborn and will try not to let it happen. As will I.
But I can't help but think about time.
You see, since they are in honor classes they will have to work very hard. They won't have much time out of school, I suspect. Because they'll have more homework,projects and of course other friends that they care about.
After a while will they forget me? No,of course not. I know they won't. We just won't be together as much. And our friendship might crumble. But they would never forget me. I'm perfectly happy with that.
We all have to move forward no matter what happens! ^_^ Right?
I don't want to start out my freshmen year with a pessimistic attitude.
I will try to keep the friends I currently have even if we are in different classes/grades. I have no doubt they will try to do the same.
I shall forever accept people for who they are, not what they are or who they were in the past.
Quote time!
Crying is often difficult to do at hard times. But smiling through the toughest time is even harder to do.

We've all changed since we graduted; it seems like Maggie and I have completely switched places. She was going to be the psychologist, I was going to be the writer. Well, now I'm the psych major and she's writing screenplays. Perry's into martial arts now, plus learning how to track. We're all into different things now, but we all have our common roots: high school and track.
They stayed at my house until 1 AM, just tlaking and catching up. And reminiscing, of course. Suddenly we're back in high school, remembering all the drama. Yearbook scandals, evil nuns overstepping their bounds, all the fun we had. But what I remember most, sadly, are the bad times.
I was so excited to go to college and get away from what everyone had labelled me as for my entire life. I could finally become the person who I really was inside, and I wouldn't have to be afraid about it.
So when I come home, I'm back in a place that I've hated my entire life, even when I was a kid. There's parts of my life here that I can't just leave behind, that I can't just let go no matter how much I want to. Re-living four years of high school in one night will make you feel that especially well. I'm trying to let go, but it's harder than I would have thought. I'm still a bitter old woman here.
John Canemaker, a 2006 Oscar winner (Short Animated Film- The Moon and the Son: An Imagined Conversation) was actually a graduate of my high school. He apparently had a similar high school experience to me, and after he won the Academy Award, he was invited to come speak at my school. Along with the students there (myself included), his old classmates were sitting in the auditorium. At one point one of his old classmates tried to ask him a question, which Mr. Canemaker did not answer. He only replied with, "You had your chance twenty years ago!"
So, in my perfect dream, one day I'll be rich,famous and succesful. I'll be invited back to NDHS to speak, and all the people I've graduated will be sitting in the back of the auditorium, behind the students still attending the school. Then, as they try ask me a question I shall dutifully quote Matchbox Twenty back to them: "Strange, where were you when we started this gig?"
"..."
"No I am not bitter!"
Yes, yes I am.
"We've all got bad yearbook photos
Which we forgot to let go
And just like acne
Our insecurities should be something we left with the JV
So here's to letting go of yearbook photos
Things we've got that's holding us down
So that was yesterday
There's always tomorrow
We are tomorrow"

So the whole "do something productive" plan did not happen. I ended up watching a movie and then going out with my aformention friend. We went downtown and to the Cereal Bar for coffee which was fun and turned out to be fairly interesting. We ran into some old friends that we hadn't seen in awhile and it was good to catch up with them. It seems like when you really connect with someone then that connection is never broken and no matter how long you two go without speaking, everything seems back to normal once you see each other again. I like that alot and I hope it holds true for all of my friends from high school. Tonight got me to thinking about how much I will miss everyone that I see at school. Also, about how I take seeing my friends, and even people who I am only just aquainted with, for granted. Like this one girl who has a locker near mine. I don't know her name and after school I will probably never see her again... Maybe I should use the remainder of the semester to get to know everyone better so that I don't miss out on making friends with some potentially cool people... Hmm.
Hi, this is my first post on this blog. I've blogged before but I think I'm actually going to use this one to speak what's really on my mind. For instance: I really have no idea where my relationship is at with my boyfriend. I know lots of girls use their blogs to gush/complain/worship/rant about their boys but hopefully mine will not be like that. Anyways, other things that I want to talk about on here: my friends, my family, my life, school, work... Just everything I guess which is really what the point of a blog is... Sharing your life with random strangers... Soungs extremly weird to me but here it goes.
So... I will start with telling about myself, I guess. I am a senior in high school and I cannot wait for college. I am going to be an english major and I am planning to room with my bestfriend. She and I are like sisters but here recently we have begun to grow appart... It makes me sad to know that she wants space but I understand it... If we continue to be joined at the hip then come this fall when we have to live together we will probably be at each others throats so we decided to try spending time with other friends. Moving on, I live with my mother and father and I have a little sister. I was adopted when I was three months old and my sister was adopted when she was three years old. She and I are four years, six months, and two weeks appart. I do not know why I put that into such detail but there it is. I recently started working at a daycare near my home and I really enjoy my job. I want to be a teacher and so working with small children seemed like a good way to prepare myself. Anyways, I've got to run now because my sister and I are home alone and I need to get dinner started. I will most likely be back on here later tonight to continue my post and also to avoid my required reading for school. =]
there's this girl who i've been best friends with since i can remember. ( well, more like 2 years.. )
but recently school and.. other stuff has been straining our relationship.
she keeps pressuring me into being her friend. i feel like since we've been friends so long it would be rude and shameful of me to just blow her off... but it really is hard on me..
we haven't hung out together for 3 weeks ( and then it was with her boyfriend, which stresses me out because whenever they're together, all they do is make out!!! ) and she called me asking for my camera...
... i really have lost it, but i don't feel like i should have to give it to her, you know?
so i told her i couldn't find it. AND I CAN'T! T_T~
i just wish i knew how to end the relationship peacefully and unawkwardly ( we both go to school together, so i'm sure we'll get classes together in the future, ESPECIALLY if we stop being friends. )....
nothing is real anymore...
in addition, school is so hard! T_T!!
i'm barely passing geometry!! it's sooooooo hard. >w< but i'll do my best!
i've got a rough draft of a speech due in 2 days, and.. ugh.. a play.. and.. ugh.. so much...
wish me luck!
