Forgetting You, But Not The Time
Tonight is my last night before I go back to school tomorrow, as well as a few other people, and for some reason, it's a lot more poignant than it was last year. A few of us are sophomores now and a few are freshman, but it all seems like we've never experienced any of it before. It's all feeling so new right now and I have a good feeling why.
This summer has been like a roller coaster. Personally, I've gotten closer to people while drifted from others, but tonight we all came together for one last night and it was amazing. Everybody was together, laughing, sharing stories, telling jokes, and just being friends which we haven't been in a long time.
At first I thought that this summer was just shit, but now that I look back on it, it helped me grow more than I thought. I had my first job which sucked ass, but it gave me some work ethic and experience that can help me get a better summer job next year. I went to PRIDE, Green Day, Warped Tour, and Comic-Con and had the time of my fucking life at all of them, went to three Victor Drake events and loved each one (Technicolor came out on top, though), and finally got a damn laptop. I've bonded with people, fought with people, been dangling on the edge many times, and had experiences and conversations that I never thought I would have, but I don't regret a single day of it. As hard as it was sometimes, I wouldn't trade this summer for anything in the world.
So, to Nicole, Jaz, Jackie, Joel, Sean, and Amanda, I wish you all the luck at school and I hope that you can relate to this post, as well as everybody else who reads this. We are young and we are talented, and we have the world waiting for us to take it over. When we look back on our teenage life, we may not remember the place, the day, the names, or even the faces, but we will definitely remember the time. And I find comfort in knowing that I was a part of peoples' memories and they were a part of mine.
To quote Green Day:
"And in the darkest night
If my memory serves me right
I'll never turn back time
Forgetting you, but not the time."
Good luck in all you do and never, ever forget this time.
Neurotically Yours,
