People, Life, and Change.

It’s funny how people change. It happens when you least expect it too. You think you know someone, then you blink and they’re a totally different person. I think it’s kind of frustrated, especially when it’s not a change for the better. But it’s happening all around us, every day, whether you see it or not. Now I’m certainly not saying change is a bad thing at all. In fact, I love change. It spices my life up a little bit. But it’s just when people who you are close to change, and although you and that person are fine, they somehow leave you behind after the change. Nothing is more frustrating to me than a broken friendship that cannot be fixed, simply because there is nothing to be fixed! My best friend all throughout high school and I don’t speak very often anymore and some times it really gets me down. We haven’t had any fights or anything things just changed. I guess the fact that she is still in high school and I am in college has put a gap between us, but I still put forth an effort. Somehow she evolved into this person that I can’t even begin to understand. On a lighter note, I gained an even closer friend, Maggie. By losing close ties with Kristina, Maggie and I were able to develop our special friendship. We are the truest definition of “best friends”. We spend so much time together I think we are beginning to resemble each other.. haha. But seriously, sometimes I get down, but then I gotta remind myself how luck I am, and to just take the good and leave the bad…

I guess that is just a life lesson that everyone learns at some point.

People always say that once you leave high school it is so much different between you and your friends. I didn't really realize how true that was until recently. I mean, I still hang out with people I hung out with in high school but I think that is because we all went to different high schools. But then there is Josh who has been my best friend since we were in 8th grade. He went to school at Lambuth so I don't get to see him unless he's on break, but even then it never seems to happen. It's kind of sad but it's just something that happens to everyone and good things come out of it, too, like your friendship with Maggie!

Yeah, changing is weird. Now, that I look back I have changed so much over the years. Just like the way I dress or the music I listen too. I think most people go through that because it is just growing up. I defiantly have not talked to few of my friends from high school either, so I know how that feels and it’s really is a downer

Hey girl! Im still alive ha ha, I have been really sick lately so was not able to make it to class. I haven't missed a lot. Well anyways I def. agree with you about people change! Some of my friends that I have had since elementary school are not the same now. I can not even count on them anymore and I can not even hang out with them any more! It sucks because we use to be so close but high school came and it changes people!! I hate it! :(
