last night of summer.

[strawberricake]

this summer wasnt anything like i thought it would be. in the beginning of it i had all these big plans and goals and things i wanted to do. i actually dont think i did any of it. theres nothing i can actually put into words, nothing i can name, no places i can say i went to..but theres nothing i would have changed even if i could. this summer i learned that its not how many things you do, or places you go that make a summer amazing. its about those nights that you go running in the pouring rain, and deciding to go swimming at 3 am. its about driving around with your best friends with no where inparticular to go. its about going to concerts and making friends with the people in the car next to you. summers about feeling alive and crazy and willing to do anything. its about taking risks, and praying to god you dont get caught. summer is sitting in your best friends living room laughing so hard you cry. its going on a shopping spree, just because you can. its making macaroni and cheese at 2 in the morning while your watching tv with your best friends. its flying kites in the middle of a parking lot with your best friend. its driving down the boulevard having the time of your life, or being with your best friend talking about how scared you are to grow up. its having some of your best friends graduate and leave you. its about meeting new people, and starting new things. its those random nights with nothing to do so you decide to make your own adventure. its about letting go. its about making plans you know youll never go though with. summers about feather boas, and the people that notice. its about sitting under a street lamp with you best friend at 2 am waiting for someone. its about bonfires, or making pacts just because it feels like right. summers about crazy nights, and promises, its about secrets, and fights. its pulling all-nighters and eating soup while you watch the sun come up. summer is laying in the back of a truck looking at the stars and not wanting to be anywhere else.

so yeah, i might not be able to put a name to anything i did this summer, and i probably will forget about half the stuff in a month. but thats how its supposed to be, those amazing nights youll never remember, with the people youll never forget. to say the least this was the best summer yet. i think i have more now then i could have ever imagined. i wouldnt have changed anything for the world.

so cheers to summer 2005, a summer for the books.

love muchly.
