Christmas is coming down on me like a great big red and green tidal wave. To some degree, I'm terrified. To another, I'm looking forward to it. I like getting people presents. I always try to get people something they want or need.

no one's always happy, and anyone who expects you to be is not worth your time to begin with. you're so honest about everything else, you deserve a chance to be honest about your own feelings too. you've got to let it out when things come up, otherwise you're right, someday you're not going to have room to store any more of it and it'll just explode. none of us are too busy to talk about your problems or listen to you vent, and we all care enough about you that it's not an inconvenience or anything at all. that's what we do, we support each other. no one can get through all of this alone.

i know what you mean about going home. it seems like it'll be so wonderful to see everyone again, and when you get there it's just...not what you were expecting, and everything feels sort of melancholy because it's not the same. maybe everyone goes through that, maybe it's part of growing up. maybe it's harder for those of us whose parents are so supportive and so awesome, yeah? but i know how you feel because i'm right there too, so don't ever hesitate to talk to me about it, ok?

you've got a good mindset about everything, but there's nothing wrong with letting yourself feel sad or angry for a while when you need to. otherwise it's like being just half a person, and i really don't think you're capable of that. well. except in the height department... :P

things are going to get better, maybe not right now but soon. nothing lasts forever. this is sort of a...bad time, i think. for everyone. it's been a really crazy year, and not the best by a long shot, but it's almost over. graduating is certainly a weird thought, but it's pretty exciting to be so close to something new. besides, we're going to blow everyone out of the water completely. it's something to look forward to.

*major hugs* but, yeah. we're your friends, we're always here for you, even when things are tough.
