Why hello there.

I've wanted to blog since Friday evening (as this post is dated then), but so many things have come up that I totally lost the momentum. Just the momentum though, not the desire.
It's Sunday now.

In the midst of college apps, Lit coursework and crazy prep for Mocks, it's been a hectic few weeks. I've been sleeping earlier than I have been in a long while, yet I feel inexplicably tired. I get up and have to DRAG myself out of bed. Not like that's anything new...

I miss my friends.

The friends that I haven't seen since graduating, the friends that are too busy to hang out anymore, the friends that I left in other countries, the friends that left TO other countries, the friends that can't be bothered anymore and the friends that time has just taken away.

I suppose that's what we all have to deal with though.

Sometimes, I find that I'm reluctant to go to reunion parties. Despite this, I do go. And what happens? I leave with a lightness in my chest. It's a happy feeling.

Now with us all busy and moving on to new places and schools and friends, I doubt we're going to be able to gather the same way. I realise I miss it more than I thought I would.

A conversation I had with Cheryl a while back when we weren't drowning in math papers and law essays:

But I do have friends that have stuck around and are proably going to for a while. All this despite the fact that they are mad busy and in different countries and what not.

I couldn't ask for more from them.

I'm the luckiest twit in the world.
