(no subject)
You can't say you are officially "home" for break, until you go to the mall to do Christmas shopping, and you run into people you haven't seen for 3 years...or until you go to the obligatory Christmas mass and you see various people from your high school years. And it serves as a reminder of how much high school really did suck.
Ah, yes...high school. Fond memories for many, not so fond memories for what I would think is the majority. After all, some people say that high school is the best years of your life, and whenever someone says that I just laugh to myself and think "well, what a shitty ass life this is". I probably will sound like a cynical asshole in this post, but so be it. High school sucked. I have no desire to ever again see the great majority of the people I shared that glorious building (also known as Watkins Mill High School) with.
This is what I thought about as I sat in church tonight, surrounded by people who 3 years ago would ignore me because of the friends I ate lunch with. And I would do the same to them. This isn't bashing anyone in particular, rather just the memories that strike up in my head when I see, say, someone from high school. Not to say they are horrible people or anything like that, I'm sure people see me and have bad associations too.
Even those so-called friends...I can say I have....hmm, one person from high school that I still keep in touch with. Others I managed to keep in touch with for a good while, however slowly but surely those contacts started to fade. And now it has dwindled down to one person.
I sometimes miss some of the friendships that were lost, but there are a few in particular that I look back on and I can barely call it a friendship. It's like, what was that? How could I be so stupid?
I guess everyone is stupid in high school though. So it's excusable.
Hmm, well I am well out of high school...being a junior in college right now...This was a random entry that is just based on those thoughts that went through my head tonight. I guess this is the result of seeing people who I don't quite appreciate, and I had all but forgot about.
Kinda makes me appreciate UMBC. This probably sounds corney and cliche, but thanks everyone at UMBC, I appreciate all of you, and yes there are the ups and downs but I am pretty satisfied with my life there. I am happy with the relationships I have formed there. Just remembering high school, and the constant anxiety I felt, and the constant desire to be someone I'm not...just remembering all that and then realizing where I am today makes me that much happier.
Aww...how sweet. Haha
Merry Christmas and all that junk, to all one of you that read this.
