"Living might mean taking chances, but they're worth taking. Loving might be a mistake, but it's worth making."
*~*~*"Somewhere In Between..."*~*~*
Somewhere between the procrastination,
And the homework,
And the new friendships,
And the nasty dorm food,
And the calls home complaining about roommates & boyfriends...
Somewhere between the phone calls to old friends,
And the
“I miss you's",
And the "I love you's",
And the "I can't wait to see you again's"
And somewhere between all of the changing and growing...
Somewhere between classes
And the skipping classes,
And the studying for tests,
And downright NOT studying for tests...
I forgot
I forgot what it was like to be in high school.
I forgot what it meant to cry.
I forgot that pretending to be happy doesn’t make you happy.
And pretending to be smart doesn't make you smart.
I forgot that I can't forget the past.
I forgot that I can't control falling in love.
And that you can't make yourself fall in love.
I learned that I can love.
I learned that good food doesn't really seem great until you can't have it again.And I learned that even I would grow to love soup and mac & cheese.
I noticed that I get along better with my mom now that I ever did before.
And it wasn't because she changed –
It was because I changed
I learned that going to college means making choices.
And that making choices can get you into trouble.
I learned that it's okay to mess up,
And it's okay to ask for help.
I learned that sometimes the things you want most in life you just can't have.
I learned that the greatest thing about college
Isn't the parties,
Or the drinking,
Or the guys...
It's the chances.
Taking the chances and making the most of them.
I learned that the things we want to forget
Are the things which we most need to talk about.
I learned that once you go to college, things don't automatically get better...
It's what you make of them.
I learned that letters from friends are the most important thing...
And that sending cards to your friends makes you feel better.
But basically, I just learned that my friends
-both new and old-
Are the most important people to me in the world.
And without them, I wouldn't be who I am today.
So this is a thank you to all my friends for always being there.
I love you.
