Goodbye, See ya later Alligator, Adios...

" If ever there is a tomorrow that we're not together... there is always something you must remember. You're bravery than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. But the most important thing is, even if we're apart... i'll always be with you."

~Winnie the Pooh.


I really
hate saying goodbye. It is truly my least favorite thing in the world... it really is.

These past four years I have met people who have changed my life, they have shaped me into who I am today and it is just.. i dunno
weird to say goodbye to them.

The are apart of my family.

Tonight I said goodbye to one of my best teaching friends. She literally got me through so many of my teaching classes by just being herself. I KNOW she and I will be friends forever and she will do amazing things with her life and I love her so much... it's just
weird to not be seeing her again in August.

I am leaving for camp in a day. Even though I know that the friends I am saying goodbye to next I will only be leaving for a few months it still feels the same. I love these people so freaking much that I miss them the instant I walk away from them...

I also saw someone who no matter what he does will always be my best friend. He has gone through so much with me, knows everything there is to know about me, and has given me advise about so many situations that I am lost in. I guess seeing this person just reminded me of how much I hate not talking to people you care about... It is so
stupid to waste your time on being mad at someone when you could enjoy it being with them and laughing.

I don't know what it is but lately I have just gotten into the funk that I don't want to waste my time with people I know don't want to be around me... I guess graduating has just opened my eyes that I am in charge of me and I shouldn't waste myself on those who don't even care.

What I'm getting at is that the people who I said goodbye to tonight and all the others who are my friends are just so freaking important to me. I could never imagine my life without them in it... Why waste time not talking to people you would give the world to?

I guess what I'm trying to say world is this: Appreciate what you have while you have it because you could wake up in the morning and it could be gone.

... that sounded awful. Just appreciate those who deserve it and don't waste your time and energy on those who don't.

You'll be much happier... trust me. I have learned this. MANY OF TIMES.

Below is a song that I feel is extremely appropriate for tonight:

On my way back home, by chance I thought of
All my favorite songs, where I'd gone wrong
The only words that I could think of
I'm pissing my life away in the form of a song
On my way back home

  1. this reminds me of this:
    Why can't we get all the people together in the world that we really like and then just stay together? I guess that wouldn't work. Someone would leave. Someone always leaves. Then we would have to say good-bye. I hate good-byes. I know what I need. I need more hellos. ~Charles M. Schulz
