somewhere b e t w e e n the procrastination…. and the homework…..
and the incessant forwards…..and jobs….and the friendships….. and the calls to each other complaining about crushes!!…… Somewhere b e t w e e n the phone calls to old friends….. And the “I miss you’s”, the “I love you’s”……. And the “What are we doing tonight’s?”….. And somewhere b e t w ee n all of the changing,growing… Somewhere b e t w e e n the classes…….. And the skipping classes…… And the studying for tests…….And the pretending to study for tests……. And the downright NOT studying for tests… I forgot.……… I forgot what life is all about. I forgot what it meant to cry……. I forgot that pretending to be happy doesn’t make you happy……….. And that pretending to be smart doesn’t make you smart ………… I forgot that you can’t just forget the past in fear of the future………. I forgot that you can’t control falling in love……….. And that you can’t make yourself fall in love.………. I learned that I can love.…….. I learned that it’s okay to mess up……… And it’s okay to ask for help……… And it’s okay to feel like crap……… I learned it’s okay to complain and whine to all your friends for a whole day…….. I learned that sometimes the things you want most you just can’t have. I learned that the greatest things in life are not the parties or the DRiNKiNG or the hook-ups… It’s the friendships, which means taking chances…….. I learned that sometimes the things we want to forget are the things which we most need to talk about………. I learned that letters from friends are the most important things.And that sending cards to your friends makes you feel better. But, basically, I just learned that my friends…….. Both o l d and new.…….. Are the most important people to me in the world. AND…….without them, I wouldn’t be who I am today….. So this is a thank you to all of my friends. . For always being there. And even if we’re not on good terms or we have lost touch… I still care for you.

And this is my way of saying thanks to you
