independence from what
The fireworks made me realize something.
Last year, all i wanted to do was grow up so fast and get the fuck out of high school and into college. I wanted to end the waste of four years of life called high school and actually get into something that meant something. This year, i don't want to say that we are little kids, but i think we have all just realized that it isn't too often all of us get together, and the time that we do spend together is important. The saying of 'finding out who your true friends really are after high school' holds true, we have gone through a ton of shit together this past year, and i think we've held out as a group so well and i am very proud of all of us. I never thought that going into college would split up all of our time as much as it does, the schedules are insanity (plus the fact that we all live in diff cities now!!). But now i feel like when all of us friends can get together, we just chill..and sometimes regress into being five years old.(sparklers? sprinklers? what?) Because the world is growing up too fast. The good times and the parties are still there--for sure, but i feel as if they are way more balanced with the times that we just want to catch up on life. I was watching the fireworks on scott's uncle's lake, and realized that the main thing that i wanted to do, was listen and watch them like i did when i was a little kid. Amongst all of this growing up business, i feel like there is no time anymore, and sometimes i just want to slow down and remember just how happy just fireworks used to make me.
