Tina's Party
Tina's party on Friday, August 5 was such a blast. Ash, Em, Patrick Sloane, Megs, Alex, Amanda, Mike, Tina (of course), Jon (for like half an hour), and I were all there. Patrick Sloane gave me the hardest time...it's a twin thing, I think. Patrick kept pointing out my gullibility...it was all in good fun, though. He and Meaghan now share the task of giving me a hard time lol. We watched Stripes, which was a funny movie, and had fun harassing people on instant messenger (specifically Cassy and Rachel). We rocked out to Flogging Molly and Reel Big Fish. We also took a walk in the dark around Tina's neighborhood. We had the most beautiful view of the city. We sang the whole way, and just basically had the best time goofing off. It's times like these, once again, that make me wish this summer didn't have to end.
It's been hitting me harder and harder how soon the end is. I'm actually going away, and I won't be seeing anyone familiar for a very long time. All these people who I've grown to love are all scattering and I will be on my own. Such a scary thought. I'd be lying to myself, I think, if I said I felt ready, but I do feel like I will adjust. I feel like it's something I can do, and something I will be glad I did. I feel too dependent right now, and I think going away will foster in me a sense of independence. It's the best lesson in becoming indenpendent that I could think of. There's so much to think about, and so much I will miss when I go.
