looking back through old diary entries is also weird...
it gives you time to reflect on the past, understand the state you were in, and allows you to compare yourself now to back then...

handwriting
you know what's really fun to do? looking back on your handwriting progression from early-latest throughout the year. i think in some ways it shows your struggle, your focus, your passions, your character, and it is one of your marks that you can make in the world.
great quotes for saying goodbye
"goodbyes; they often come in waves."
---jarod kintz
"remember me and smile, for its better to forget than to remember me and cry."
---dr. seuss
"never say goodbye, because goodbye means going away, and going away means forgetting."
---j.m. barrie
"goodbye may seem like forever. farewell is like the end. but in my heart is the memory, and there you will always be."
"there are no goodbyes; wherever you go, you'll be in my heart."
---ghandi
"don't cry because it's over; smile because it happened."
---dr. seuss
"some people come into your life and quickly go, but some stay awhile, leave footprints on your heart, and you are never ever the same."

what it's like to lose your best friends
"things change, and friends leave; life doesn't stop for anybody."
---stephen chbosky
in life, you can't have everything you want.
that's that.
i had one year..one year...to make friends. i thought it would never happen. i honestly thought i would just leave like that, and it'd be easy. but you know what? life is unexpected.
you see the beauty in things you had never even pondered.
you see light in the greatest darkness.
you see the way to the other side of things.
friendship gives you an emotional and physical connection with another human being. you laugh and talk and just express every thought and part of your soul.
friendship kind of just walks into your life. you see things one way, and your perspective gives way for a new friendship. your perspective gives someone else a new path into your life.
but paths close. obstacles block the path. friendships aren't always easy. complications and complexities often lead to the falling out of friends.
i think a lot of friendships come about when your direction manual is pointing you one way, but you have to take a detour because of traffic.
losing friends is so hard. one day, you love them and want to live everyday just like before. and the next, they're gone. school is over.
but don't think you've lost a friend, or two, or three, or thirteen.
but you've gained a new opportunity to continue your friendship-which may be difficult, but through difficulties you can often find strength in yourself and others-and make new friends.
i don't think any friends that i make in the future will match the ones i've made at my school.
shoutout to hannah, luke, andrew, abby, kiwi, caro, laurel, kevin, landon, mitch, and so many others.
all of you guys are worth fighting for.

"Stars" by Grace Potter and the Nocturnals
I lit a fire with the love you left behind
And it burned wild and crept up the mountain side
I followed your ashes into outer space
I can't look out the window, I can't look at this place.
I can't look at the stars
They make me wonder where you are
Stars, up on heaven's boulevard
And if I know you at all, I know you've gone too far
So I, I can't look at the stars.
All those times we looked up at the sky
Looking out so far, it felt like we could fly
And now I'm all alone in the dark of night
And the moon is shining, but I can't see the light.
And I can't look at the stars
They make me wonder where you are
Stars, up on heaven's boulevard
And if I know you at all, I know you've gone too far
So I, I can't look at the stars.
Stars
Stars, they make me wonder where you are
Stars, up on heaven's boulevard
And if I know you at all, I know you've gone too far
So I can't look at the stars.
And it burned wild and crept up the mountain side
I followed your ashes into outer space
I can't look out the window, I can't look at this place.
I can't look at the stars
They make me wonder where you are
Stars, up on heaven's boulevard
And if I know you at all, I know you've gone too far
So I, I can't look at the stars.
All those times we looked up at the sky
Looking out so far, it felt like we could fly
And now I'm all alone in the dark of night
And the moon is shining, but I can't see the light.
And I can't look at the stars
They make me wonder where you are
Stars, up on heaven's boulevard
And if I know you at all, I know you've gone too far
So I, I can't look at the stars.
Stars
Stars, they make me wonder where you are
Stars, up on heaven's boulevard
And if I know you at all, I know you've gone too far
So I can't look at the stars.
