six days left...
Tonight I went to ericka's senior recital. I don't know her very well but we've been in choir together for a great many years and last year I always regretted it when I didn't go to people's senior recitals so I made it my mission to go to as many as I could this year. I definitely enjoyed it.
Ericka's last piece was a credo she had written herself for her church which described what she believed. I honestly think it was the best religious song I've ever heard. It made me cry. And as I listened to it I couldn't tell what part of it was making me cry. The words? Her voice singing them? Or the fact that both made me think that I will very possibly never see this girl again after the next few weeks. I came up to her after the the performance and complimented her just as everyone did but I could not tell her how much it impacted me because I was afraid I'd fall to pieces if I said anything too sentimental.
It doesn't seem possible I'm six days away from finishing highschool when here I am freaking over math homework and reading. I am so thankful for all the friends that are staying close by and those who are leaving, I will miss terribly. I intend to stay in touch as, if I have a good friendship, I do not let that go easily.
