Well, this week has been full of goodbyes. I'm not a big fan of them. During these times, i feel sad and lost....which is not a good thing. I don't like the fact that during the summer we all get so close and then at the end we split our separate ways. Its a depressing fact that no one likes. But, this is a start to a new beginning. We are heading in the direction of our future goals.
You have Joy, who just left home for college for the first time....as i have been told, she is already having a blast. I'm happy for her but its a change i will have to get used to. In high school, joy and i were always together. We had the same classes, lunch, were in band together, and played at basketball games, and concerts together. She was and still is a great friend. I can count on her for anything and for being there for me in times of trial. I will miss her a lot but she is on her path to becoming an engineer. :)
Then you have Ivy, who is also another great friend. She was one who was always having the boy problems. We girls always try to help when we can. But it was an all time thing. lol But now she is happily engaged to a nice guy named, Ethan, and she seems the happiest I can remember. I'm happy for her and can't wait to be in her wedding. She is one i can count on to be loud (even when you don't want her to be....such as this past Monday at the canoe place waiting for the bus...lol Amber knows what i mean). Ivy is also one to always want to try something new. You can count on her for adventure and fun! :) But i know that if there were ever anytime that i needed her, she would be right there for me.
Now for Amber, she is a great friend. I can tell this girl anything and we just have a fun time. We have had soooo many good times and memories together. Even tho she is far away in a land called Arr-Kansas, we still manage to find the time to talk on the phone or chat several times a day. I can't even begin to describe this girl. She is awesome. Amber is also so into her faith, which has kept me grounded on my spiritual path. She is someone who you can be yourself with and not worry about being judged. She is also tons of fun to go shopping with.....you haven't been shopping till you go with her. Today we were packing for her travel to Harding, which is a sad event its self, and we ended up laying on the floor just talking and laughing. It was great. But the saddest part was telling her goodbye and she made me cry by crying herself. But i don't know what i would do without her....
or any of these girls for that matter. They are a part of me, of who i am....i wouldn't be the person that i am without them.
I love you girls and hopefully i'll see you all soon!
