so this was it. 12 years, 4380 days, 105120 hours.. no matter what way you put it, it just wasnt long enough for me. graduation is the day we've been begging to get to for years, and now its the day we'd trade it all to never have to experience it. hell, ive said goodbye to my fair share of people throughout my life, but ive never had them say it to me. i've always had that security net behind me, those friends i could always count on, and even though i know they'll still be there, that net will be in pieces scattered hundreds of miles away from me. *le sigh*
aside from all that, these years have been the best so far in my life. from heights to jefferson and everywhere in between theres been those select few who have made memories i will never forget & here is my thank yous to all of them.
kara; there isnt a sunday that goes by that i wonder why i'm not in friendly's getting breakfast with you. you were the only one who was constantly my friend and put up with the bullshit of my dancing & such. i think i spent more time in your house with your family than i spent with my own. im going to be honest, we had to have been the most imaginative girls on the planet. we still need to open that resturant haha. thanks for everything. =)
brie; holy fucking shit. boo - i dont even want to imagine what my life would be without you in it. from playgrounds of forest, to the mean streets of HBW, and to some of the best memories of my life in high school we've been attached to the hip, youre the sister i wish i had, instead of the 2 i really do. haha. we were trouble makers from the start & you taught me to be pro. haha. i think im going to come boof "my bed" from your house so when youre gone i can still feel like im at home. and my escort baby - if you wreck my car i will wreck your face. haha. theres too many memories on those tires to throw them all away. i know you will go far in life, but i know where you'll end up. me & 10 will be at the pool meetings - and we better see you there too. haha. "one word to describe me, incredible yes!" i love you so friggen much. you show villanova what swimming is all about. <3 fudge off! ;oD
allie; i swear when i have kids i want them to be just like you - minus the excessive alcohol comsumption & drugs, but still - just like you. haha. you've worked your ass off & deserve all you have now. youre an amazing friend and i just wouldn't be so jewish without you. you've taught me more than most adults that have come into my life. theres days that go by and i have to question why we are the true life version of cant hardly wait. im going to miss you so much when you go off to college, but just know ill be down there soph. year rocking UMD with you baby. (hopefully) thanks for always beening a drunken mess with me and for all the times i thought id laugh so hard id die. never fucking change. =o*
k10; you actually are my mother. you are probably more responsible than all of us combinded, but we still know whats underneath that tough exterior - youre just dying to be smash X core with us. haha. thanks for always having your head on the right way, it means alot to all of us. i dont think i would have survived middle school without you. we were actually inseperable, and such losers, but looking back on it makes me smile. even if i had the suckiest day i knew we could all just go to your house, blast some music, and dance the crap away. life without the compound will be strange, but i know come summer we'll all be back there wasting away. thanks for keeping me sane these last 8 years - ill miss you so much & good luck at ithica. <3 xx
ashlee; i dont even know what to say to you. you went from the girl i thought my life would be better without, to the girl i cant imagine my life without. youre absolutely amazing and my favorite person so be lazy & gossip with. i still dont understand why at parties we bond together, but im so thankful we do. thanks for always holding my hair back & escorting me for another cigarette i didnt need. haha. i love you smash, with all my heart, and dont let any of those lesbians at bay path steal you away - im the only girl for you. hahahaha. come to UMD next year too - we can dorm together. <3
jaclyn; the boys section called and wants thier clothes back. haha. oh man, thanks for making jefferosn a little less of a hell hole for me. ill never forget cruising in the maxima, ruining our ears & lungs getting everyword to 'only one' out. haha. from our random wal-mart runs to seeing where route 23 ends - the laughter never stopped. though this is not the end i was hoping for just know that when you leave, my life wont be the same. who else will i sit around mcdonalds with or just drive around with no destination. theres no one left. good luck in north carolina, and if/when you come back and youre looking for a good laugh - give me a call.
brit; as much as we may "hate" each other now, i know its not that easy to let go of someone whos impacted your life so much, and though it might not be the same for you it has been that way for me and i thank you for all the lessons you taught me, and for being my friend in an unfamiliar town. and though i know you've moved on to other friends, youre still that one person who makes me think being here isnt the end of the world. i dont think ill even be able to eat another sticka in my life or play any cd in my collection without thinking of you. this isnt the way i planned for this to be, and im sorry it was like this. good luck at willy p & ill miss you. tell gma i said hi.
klepto; youre actually insane and its probably youre best quality. i dont think i can say more than what ive said already, but just know that you really changed my life and i cant thank you more. youre an amazing friend, and dont even let anyone tell you different. never change & good luck in salem. ill miss you.
im sorry if i forgot anyone, but right now im just uber depressed/stressed and all that crazy shit that i cant even think straight. thanks to everyone for everything you've ever done for me. i owe you the world.
goodbye high school - its been real.
<3
