Thanks for the memories <3

This is more of a personal recount of what happened to me, so sorry if this thread seems pointless or stupid or whatever. I just want a medium to be able to remember exactly what went down. This blog's basically about my last day of high school. Names are gonna be on a first letter basis.

So yeah, before the day even started, my friends and I had plans. Go to E's house and party. Cept my stupid lazy butt waited and I also have to go to a college orientation midway. But first school so I can pick up my report card and diploma. I went to school and did just that. My report card was pretty impressive for a second term senior who rarely went to class, I had a 83 average, and my overal GPA only dropped by .5. I was cool with that.

Then I went upstairs and began to say my goodbyes. Since this was the last day, I wasn't gonna see many of these people ever again. Most of them were simply friends that I knew, but weren't exactly bonded with. A few were though. At one point, my friends and I decided to be daring/idiots. There was always this window in the back of the second floor atrium that we'd always wanted to go outside of, and we decided YOLO basically (and I hate that acronym). The window would only open about 8 inches, but lucky for us, all three of us were skinny. So we crawled outside and started partying it up. Made a pretty nice scene :'D


Soon we decided it'd be smart to get back inside before a teacher catches us and suspends us on the last day of school, so we crawled back inside. My belt got stuck, though, so my friends along with a few bystanders who were taking pictures decided to help us out. Broke my nail somehow, but I got free in the end. Woot. At this point, my friends and I were just waiting for E, and her twin Z wasn't coming, so we had no choice. As she did, I saw Nazifa.

Nazifa was... is a girl who I admired so much. And loved. But my uncertainty overwhelmed me and I never found out if she felt the same way. Regardless, she meant so much to me in high school. We always hung out (we met in our first class in HS!) and had so much fun. She even gave me a present in the form of Anberlin's Lost Songs album, one that I could never ever find. I saw her, and realized that I might just never see her again. And for the first time that day, my emotions got to me. I hugged her hard and whispered in her ear "Keep being amazing and never ever give up" and gave her a kiss goodbye. And then she walked away and I felt the tears fall. Hah, I feel the tears now. I'm such a sap.

But yeah, I had to sit down cause my emotions were really getting to me. J saw me and she came over and hugged me. Eventually I calmed down, and then E came along and we all went ahead uptown to her house. There, we decided to make lunch from scratch, so all 8 of us went to the supermarket to buy food and stuff. We decided to make guacamole, some chicken thing, and garlic bread. We went inside and L, D, and E started cooking while Li and I hooked up the Wii. Small argument for someone to accompany S to the store to get batteries (we wanted Li to go, they were becoming an item). Forgot who went in the end, but the guacamole and Wii were ready. I played two rounds of Mario Kart before I realized I had to run to my orientation. So I left, as much as I didn't want to.

Orientation was more fun than I thought it'd be, but I ditched it earlier that I was supposed to. Hah.

I went back and realized I missed a LOT. The food was done. But the weirdest part was that the house was (supposedly empty). Little did I know E's house was HUGE and had a second basement, which they were in playing the Game of Life. They played and I messed around with Patrick (the HUGE dog plush we gifted E). And hour or two of that, and we had to leave eventually.

Then the subway ride home. The feels hit me again. I mean, I was gonna see these guys soon again, before E went to Miami and Z to California, and L and Li out of state. But still, they got to me. We hugged hard and then as D and myself waited for the train with everyone else to leave, I started crying again. By the time D had to leave, I was a sobbing mess. I was drawing attention to myself, but I didn't care. I thought music might help, but nope. Out of all the songs to play, Soul Sister went on. And that song REALLY got to me. Blah.

I went home and went straight to bed. But not before I realized that I was really really really really going to hate this summer. Cause it was a countdown to the real goodbyes.





Yeah. Random blog with me reminiscing.

When I read "thanks for the memories" I thought this was leaving PC blog lol.
Thanks goodness that's not true, but it seems you have lot good friends there, which is something hard to let go.

Oh, whoops, sorry bout that LOL

But yeah. I guess I sorta depend on them.

Ah, Dipu, this blog got to me. :'(

I remember leaving high school, which wasn't all that emotional considering I was dying to get out. I didn't care whether or not I ever saw "my friends" again and the people who I did actually care about, the really special ones, I knew weren't going anywhere. But even then, years passed, and I stopped seeing those "special" friends too.

[sappy warning]
My point is, friends come and go. But the memories you have are the things you're meant to cherish. These friends are the people who molded your young life and that friendship is, understandably, hard to let go of. But it's a part of growing up and coming into your own.

The best thing you can do for your friends and their memories, is to do right by them. Be the best person you can be on the backs of those friendships and recognize them as the important things that they are. Honor them. Prove to your friends that you are the man they knew you could be. <3

Oh, Jo. <3

I hope that speaks enough as to what I feel right now. Thank you.

My eyes tend to skip around while I read and somehow I got from you crying to guacamole. ;?

See? This is why you should be unsocial and friendless!
Uh jokes aside, Alexial is right. Friends do come and go. I know you said that it won't be the same, but you still can stay in contact with them.

One of those things that are bound to happen. Better to be distraught now than to be semi-miserable for the next year because you refused to come to terms with it, hmm?
The point is that your sadness will fade over time. Be strong, my friend! [:

Can I bash your head in?
Scary title is scary. Especially in light of all the departures as of late >_>

Heart attack avoided.

Sorrrrrrrrrrryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy <3

And thanks Jess =D
