caitie- i spend hardly any time with her anymore. i feel like we don't know each other either. i still like hanging out with her, i like it a lot. it bothers me when she doesn't give herself any credit because i know she's a lot smarter and insightful than she lets on. i'm really looking forward to having her around for 20 days of vacation. i worry for her
lisa- i can tell her anything, and i really don't worry about it. if someone told me in 9th grade i would be driving to graduation with lisa, not to mention being someone that could relax her nerves mildly, i probably wouldn't have believed them. she makes me laugh more than anyone. we can talk about deeper, more important things, and she boosts my confidence about my brain-powa. i have more inside jokes with her than my other friends. i love that she asks me to go with her to oshun mysteek, and that i soke up her ear blood with cotton swabs. in our case opposites really do attract (politically and religiously speaking). i'll miss her most when we go our separate ways to college
ashley- i wish i had put more of an effort into our relationship, i wish i had been around more for her. we wouldn't have ever become friends if i hadn't written her a note without even knowing her. i respect her a lot, especially for her strength
ellie- i can also tell her anything and not worry about her judging me. i haven't ever felt uncomfortable with her, and we've never been in a fight. i'm up for hanging out with her anywhere anytime. i believe we'll stay friends for the better part of our lives. i can hardly think of a year or memory where she wasn't there. my first day in 9th grade, in my first block PE...she was my only friend, and i always think of that when i think of just how much i can depend on her.
parker- i've come to realize the extent of his immaturity and lack of self-accountability. the past year, i spent most of my social life with him, and i can't believe how quickly things changed. we glared at each other as we walked up the stage at graduation. i recently learned that since we havent been speaking, he easily "replaced" me with someone else, and i am interchangable. i dont think he really truly cares for people, he just needs a person to fill in the spot next to him. there wasn't a day we didn't argue. it bothers me that he calls me a feminist for thinking men and women should be equal. i can't believe i swallowed my pride, twice, so we might become friends again. we have our typical movie/ barnes and noble date this friday.
alicia- she is one of my favorite people. we really drifted apart this year and it's gotten to the point where i get nervous talking one-on-one with her. i guess that's pathetic, but i'm more socially anxious than people realize. we are very very close in texts and im's and i can always count on her to be straight with me. i tell her the negative things about me because i like her guiding voice of reason. i hope we'll stay in contact, but i have the feeling that if i don't make an effort to get together or call her, then we won't stay friends. it's not quite a one-sided relationship, but i get the feeling she'll be just fine if she were to never hear from me again
