23 days till grad?!? Impossible, yet true.
I wasn't really looking forward to the grad rafting trip this weekend. Tired and jetlagged from vacation, I wasn't extremely excited about setting up camp in the wilderness. But I didn't realize that this trip would make me miss high school that much more. This trip is probably going to be the last one where we're all going to be together. I'm going to miss all this. Sitting on the raft, despite the intimidating waves, I realized how much I'm going to miss everyone, and how much I'm going to miss these moments.
These are the people I grew up with. The friends that I can truly depend on. I love them. Lying on the picnic tables under the starry sky, it all became clear to me how close we are to the end. I don't want to graduate just yet. Please, let these moments stay a while longer. Please. I play the memories in my head again and again. I think about them as I fall asleep at night. They comfort me.
I never thought I'd miss high school this much. I thought I was stronger than that. I guess I'm not. I was so excited to move on to the next chapter, but as time is closing in on me, I can't deny how much I'm going to miss pa and my friends.
I'm not good with goodbyes.
