Before I came to Chicago I was worried that my relationships with my friends would become that horrible statistic that everyone talks so much about...you know the one where you won't see your friends that you hung out with in high school until the 10 year reunion...or that you will never speak to your high school friends ever again after high school. Welps...I am beginning to believe that god awful statistic. Amber went off and got herself married...Kort moved across the country to be a nanny...Kristen and Abra stayed in Bremerton...Scott, well he was undecided...but now he is leaving for basic training in March...god only knows where that will take him...and me...well I am in Chicago pursuing my dream...my passion...Since I have been here I have noticed that those many people are right...people change...they begin their lives and create new ones.
Like two months before I moved out here Travis and I created a special bond with eachother...we even got tattoos together to represent a new found friendship...you know what? That friendship has been the only one that has really seemed to...well...last since I have been out here. He calls me everyday and I call him everyday...no matter how busy we are...we find time for eachother...even if we don't get a chance to talk to eachother we still leave a message or email to let one another know that we are thinking of the other...something that I tried to establish with the b-words once I left...in fact I did that for almost four months and I am tired of not receiving the same treatment from those that I thought were my best friends...So, since I didn't "act" like the old me when I was home...that's when they decided to make all their phone calls and act concerned...like it was convienient for them. Welps...I am not up for that anymore...I know everyone has changed and gone on with their lives...or made an attempt to...so I am not going to hold that against them...and I would expect the same from them...
Life is funny that way...the people change...lives change...its not all fun and games anymore...this is the time where you really grow to become the person you will be the rest of your life...and the time where you know who your true friends are...so to all of the people who share the same problems as I do...I feel and hear you more than I ever thought I would...and I am sorry to all of your losses as well...and to all of those who once knew me...I wish u good luck and thanks for all the great times we shared...I love and miss you all...
