One of my friends from San Diego just found me on myspace. She messaged me to say hello and that she misses me. This makes me feel happy, sad, nervous, and nostalgic all at once. I've lost contact with so many of my friends down there. And sometimes when I try and make contact (via myspace/livejournal/texting/etc), I hardly ever get a response back. I wish those kids knew how much they affected my life, and how much I adored every single one of them. Thinking about it honestly brings tears to my eyes..
I see pictures/hear of everyone getting married, having little gatherings, etc. It makes me sad to know that I am never a part of that stuff anymore.
I remember the first night I met most of them. Marks 22nd birthday at the Saloon in Encinitas. 2003. The next weekend was the Halloween party at apartment 6. I brought a friend because I was nervous, and I didn't know anyone. Dan answered the door. He gave me a huge hug and said how nice it was to see me. He genuinely seemed thrilled. This was only the 2nd time I met him. I instantly got attached to this group of people, and I was instantly accepted.
That last year in San Diego, although I was dealing with a lot of personal demons, was one of my best years ever. I hope they know that.
I miss you.<3
