What I learned walking home from class today:
Its weird to think that the people you knew/know in high school are the people you grew up with. Maybe it was just me but until now I had this whole sence that the people I grew up with were the people I knew when I was 4 - 13. Which indeed I did grow up with those people, but what I failed to realize was that just because I was in highschool didnt mean I was a full adult. Im still not. It didnt really hit me what an impact those people had on me until I got here to college. Those people and high school are the reason for why I am here, what I believe in, how I react to events in my life and why my opinions are the way they are. And there I was just thinking I was this badass little shit that knew everything about everything because I was in highschool and that I was in the real world dealing with real stuff. Which in a way you are but on a smaller level. I am by no means saying that I am a badass shit now..I dont think I ever will be..just not my nature. And I certainly will never know everything about everything. Its just that Highschool was my family. It is amazing to me how much I changed and learned in just 4 years. And what is really amazing is if you think about how much your life changes from one year to the next as a kid. What I want to know is when does it stop or slow down...when you get a job and do the same thing for 10 years?? Maybe thats why adults seem so old to little kids is because we are used to having such dramatic changes in such a short amount of time. When we think of adults and the age they are we automatically are blown away because if we change this much in 4 years and they have been around for longer than 40 years just think how much they have changed and what they have gone through. But again do things slow down and stop to where every day is nolonger a major life altering event in our life. Truely I am blown away...How amazing.
The end.

Dawson I miss you..
