Hey Guys-
now that the day of graduation is upon us (it's about 12:45am) the reality of it is starting to hit me and I just want to say that I love you guys and that I cannot verbalize how much I am going to miss you all next year.
Throughout high school I went into every drama performance saying "well maybe this won't be too terrible.. i can't remember exactly what Maggie did last show to make it miserable I'm sure it wasn't as bad as I think it was" (and then was sadly disproved time and time again) but I think it's kind of a blessing now... I will remember all of my Amity experiences in a happier light now... I truly think that I will look back and see it as one of the best times of my life and will retain the good memories and emotions and let the sad or stupid or angry ones drift away from my memory. I know I will cherish the memories of all my friends... i don't know how I got so lucky in meeting all of you but I am thankful that I did. I think what most saddens me about leaving is knowing that I am leaving this cocoon with all of you... it's inevitable that people will drift away and I don't want to see it happen. We can say that we'll be friends forever and always keep in touch... but it's goign to be impossible. I think in the short term ohh we'll talk online and see each other next summer.... but the reality is that it's not like we're ever going to be all together again... years will pass and slowly people will be settling into their new lives across the country and it will be harder and harder to retain these friendships over those time and location distances. I want to hold onto every possible second now knowing that we are all close by... because this will never happen again. This summer is it... we need to make it as damn good as we possibly can.
"for what it's worth, it was worth all the while"
