Last call...
In the end, it's not the grades that matter, or how many nights you got wasted. It's not about the amount of money you spent on take-out or how many all-nighters you had. It's not about how many people you hooked up with or how many times you skipped class... it's about us. This. Those few real people you have in your life. Those that took care of you those drunken nights, said they'd cover for you if you had no money, and gave you notes if you skipped class. It's about those people that make you smile when you feel weak. The ones that you want to kill but can't live without. The ones you see every single day of the semester. The ones that make you who you are and love you, not despite, but because, of all the stupid things you've done... together.
I saw this on Vetter's away message and read it and just realized how true it really is. Looking at today's date I realize that I'm graduating in a month. A goddamn month. I can't believe that it's been four years since I first came to this school and so much has changed within these past four years. But no matter what, I still have those first amazing people that have always changed my life and still make me smile now because I think of the stupid things that we've done and we're constantly still doing. Even though I don't get to be around them all the time and some of the most important people in my life decided to leave my life this year, I still know who my best friends can and always will be, not because of convenience because you live on the same floor or next door to each other, but because, when you're far away from each other, you can still act like it's only been yesterday since you've spoken and the miles apart really don't mean a thing. Part of growing up and moving on and finally becoming an adult means knowing when, if you're not friends with someone anymore, there's a reason for it. Even if you've been best friends for a decade, if it just doesn't work anymore and you've grown apart, don't push it. There's always reunions to see each other and have a long talk every once in a while. You can't be the same person forever and expect someone else to become the same as you and grow in the same direction.
I'm leaving Drew and I can't be happier and I know that I'll always have my favorite girls in my heart no matter where we all go.
One month and counting.
