"Same old street, just a different name. Same old house, just the family's changed. Picket fence.

The windows stained. Freedom spelled by a man in chains. The silence is all we have to give and memories of a life that I wished we lived. Hey remember me, I remember you walking away. Hey remember me, I remember you walking away."This weekend I went home to the new house. It was odd being in a different house and it definately is not "home" for me

I have to say, this is by far the best post I have ever read on lj- due to the sheer personalization and generalization of it. The best thing though, is to remember life if full of change and struggle, without either life would be just incredibly mundane and lonesome. You're the greatest!
love ya!

Holly, I'll be keeping you in my thoughts that you have everything work out. Making a decision about grad school is a huge one, and I understand what you're thinking and going through 100 percent. Hang in there, ok?

For being such good girls, we sure did do some crazy stuff! I forget how much I miss my at home friends until I spend a couple of hours with them.

Whatever you do, don't doubt yourself, don't stop making big plans, and remember, I'm ready to pack up and follow you wherever you go after graduation!

I forgot to comment on boys!

I couldn't agree with you more about how hard it is to be the girl with all the guy friends. It sucks when they literally stop remembering that you are a girl, that you aren't just another guy. Sometimes though, from these friendships, you become something more...and other times, you are just another beer drinking, pizza eating, hoody wearing, one of the boys.
