So I suck at keeping a live journal. But I'm back to make some more attempts. Well alot has happened in the past month or so, and it all seems to center around the completion of high school and the looming new beginnings. I should really be getting ready b/c Mari and her family from Wales are going to be here any minute but instead I'm reading quotes. here's a few. yea they're sappy, but it's b/c i'm looking for a good one pertaining to graduation to put in my profile.
"Maybe some people just aren’t meant to be in our lives forever. Maybe some people are just passing through. It’s like some people just come through our lives to bring us something: a gift, a blessing, a lesson we need to learn, and that’s why they’re here... you’ll have that gift forever. - The GiftMaybe some people just aren’t meant to be in our lives forever.

"Don’t be dismayed at good-byes. A farewell is necessary before we can meet again and meeting again, after moments or a lifetime, is certain for those who are friends."
"Don’t want to leave, but we both know sometimes it’s better to go. Somehow I know we’ll meet again. Not sure quite where and I don’t know just when. You’re in my heart, so until then... wanna smile, wanna cry, saying good-bye." - Muppets Take Manhattan
"Growing up happens in a heartbeat. One day you’re in diapers, next you’re gone. But the memories of childhood stay with you for the long haul."
"I'm not sure how I did It, my memories begin with the crack of the bat, and the sight of the ball rising. Maybe that's not exactly what happened. But that's the way it should have happened, and that's the way I like to remember. And if dreams and memories sometimes get confused oh well... That is as it should be, because every kid deserves to be a hero... Every kid already is..."
"We think the stars are fixed in the sky, but they are not. I think sometimes we have to learn to give in to change, to the new things. "
"A grown up is a child with layers on."
Yea ok so they don't all exactly pertain to graduation but I liked reading them. Do you like any?
This afternoon I met up with Vicky, Britt, and Jess at Tamaques and we sat around and talked. It was quality. Sitting and talking to them, brought back memories from when we'd sit in Marv's basement on Friday or Saturday nights eating chips and dip and never actually watch whatever movie we had put on. We did that alot, mostly freshmen and soph years, right girls (Vicky, help me friend lol) And then Paris together, and all the awesome times in b/t, I could go on and on. Now that time seems to be running out I'm really understanding how wonderful the friendsips I've established throughout the past 4 years really are. And today even though it was hardly 2 hours, with only 3 people (but very fabulous, funny, smart, entertaining people of course ;) it really reminded me how lucky I've been to have had such a good time during high school.
Watch out it's not even June yet and I've already began to analyze and get sentimental.
Well Mari and her family are here now so I'm off to meet and greet. I hope you enjoyed the beautiful weather today!
Later Gators xoxo
