Wow, I'm actually returning to live journal to update... isn't this
amazing? Well, let's tell you the stuff that's happened recently.
This summer has been a pretty good one. There are some things
that I wish were better, but things can always be better nomatter what
situation you're in... or at least no matter what situation I've been
in for as long as I can remember. I met Jeremy, an amazing boy who left
too soon. Rekindled a friendship with Justin, stopped hanging out
with even more of the north reading kids than last summer. I knew
it was coming, fake friends can only last so long. The only ones
that I mildly keep in touch with are Lindsay, Lauren, Colleen, and the
occasional IM from Lorri. It's fine, I like it that way.
There are only so many people that you actually want to keep in touch
with over time. I met Sam and Jeff this summer along with an
assortment of other people that I've met through them... hanging out
with them has definitely been a very good addition to fun in my life.
I've seen Greg a couple times, we've always had good times... with the
exception of one summer. It's cool how our wicked cool frienship has
lasted a lifetime. Let's see... also went to NH once. I
wish I could have gone a lot more, but classes and work at GaYlands
(Galyans) fucked up those chances for me. I purchased Joel... and
he's turning even more and more purple as the days go on ;) I
went to the Nickelback concert with three doors down and puddle of
mudd. Probably one of the most amazing nights of my summer.
They played "Hero" and "Leader of Men" the two songs that touch me in a
deep spot...haha... yes I was drunk and cried when I heard both
songs. Other concerts... I went to the Kiss Concert in May, and I
just saw Howie Day with OAR August 5th... another great show! And
here's theory that proves true. The past always makes a couple
visits to the present every now and then. Yeah, I'm talking about
a couple ex boyfriends popping into my life when they hadn't even been
thought of in years pretty much. The first and most interesting
strange happening was Elliot. I was going through the trusty Ex
shoe box with all of his things, jewlery, pictures, cards, dried
flowers, you name it...everything of us was there. I just wanted to
show her what he was like cuz she was curious about past boys in my
life. This has been the first time I opened those memories in
almost two years, and when I did... it was no big deal... even with him
being my first love and all I had no old feelings coming back. I just
smile beccause it happened, i was one of the lucky people who had
something like that cuz there are many people who havent. But
this is where it gets interesting: about a 1/2 hour after showing Sam
those things, i get a phone call completely out of the blue on my cell
phone... who is it, it's ELLIOT!! First time I have heard from him all
summer... and he's HOME. I failed to mention he's in the Army
national guard and was called to go to Iraq a long time ago, but is
home for a few extra weeks. The ultimate weirdness if you ask
me. And another interesting happening on the Ex front is
Bobby. Yes Bobby... I never ever in my most wild dreams thought
that we would speak again and I was happy that way. But one of my
coolest friends Gropemaster, who I actually met though Bobby began to
talk to him again and that ultimately ended up in Bobby and I speaking
for the first time online in years. It was a very interesting
happening. A week or so later, we're actually hanging out at
Lindsays house swimming, then again we're hanging out at his house
drinking, and again at his house drinking and playing Aruba for clothes! It's definitely a weird, but good thing. I always wanted to keep this kid in my
life as a friend, and now I kinda can. It's amazing how years
apart can still make us act the same as we always have... and how
hurtful words can be healed with a little time and a few genuine
apologies. It's really good to know that the past doesn't always
have to be our enemy and not everything is full of regrets. We all have
regrets, but I am happy to say that Bobby is no longer completely one of them like
he was for a long long time. Other news... I AM PUMPED to go to
UNH... I can't fuckin wait. I have been talking to my new
roommate Renee online a bit and she seems great!! She's from
Maine and she has a boyfriend who is trying out for the NFL! Go figure
huh? I have a feeling this is going to be one of the best years
of my entire life... and I am so ready to take it on. :)
With that, i am wrapping up this update :) See you again livejournal... don't know when, but I will.
