So basically July 3rd consisted of mass amounts of gameage and a little bit of tornado. The whole day was basically a GTA: San Andreas extravaganza! Then I hung out with Brant, Josh and Jay at Birds Hill. On the way back though we encountered a tornado in the distance, so we drove after it, but didn't catch it in time, which was a letdown.
Anyways onto important discussion...Kayla and I had a long chat into the night about everything, however one thing stuck out during that conversation that I would like indulge in for this entry. Kayla said she would like to write about sometime on "how old friends become old friends" and as I read this it made me glad because it was a subject that was occurring in my life as well, and also a good summarization of that sort of situation.
Moving on though, my neighbour who I have been friends with since a moved here in 2000 we used to have everything in common, videogames, basketball, music etc. The last year or so has been quite a different story though, he now likes different hobbies, different music and he doesn't even like sports at all anymore. My mom asked me a question on this subject a few days back and I simply said what I stated above.
I believe friends are bonded together in the first place by common interest, it is mandatory basis for all friendships. You cannot succeed in friendship with a person having all different interests and different things that inspire them. I realized this when my neighbour began liking different things so I began to slowly distance myself from the situation. Since then there hasn't been anything missing from my life, I think there's a point in time where you realize you have to move on. We all grow out of things during our lives, from when we were little kids to now, it's a natural evolution of ourselves in order to find who we are in this diverse world.
