e s o p h o r i a -all about my imperfections as a confused sinner.

Somewhere between the procrastination...
and the homework...and the incessant forwards...
and the calls to each other about crushes.

Somewhere between the phone calls to old friends and the "how are you"s and the "i miss you"s.

And somewhere between the classes...
and the skipping classes...
and the studying for tests...
and the pretending to study for tests...
and the downright not studying for tests,
I forgot.

I forgot what high school was all about. I forgot what it meant to cry.

I forgot that pretending to be happy doesn't make you happy...
and that pretending to be smart doesn't make you smart.
I forgot that you can just forget the past in fear of the future.

I learned that its okay to mess up...
and its okay to ask for help...
and its okay to be crude.
I learned its okay to complain and whine toa ll your friends for a whole day.
I learned that the greatest things you want most you jsut cant have.

I learnt that the greatest things about school isn't the dances, drinking or hook-ups, but ...

the friendships,which means taking chances...
I learned that sometimes the things we want to forget are the things which we most wanted to talk about.

I learned that the msot important things are the letters from friends. Sending cards to friends makes me feel better.
Basically, i learnt that my friends, both old and new,are the most important people to me in the world.Without them, I wouldn't be who I am today. So,this is a big thank you to all my friends for always being there.

Thank you.

this little thought is specially going out to the 'Pom Berrians'. My gratitude to all of you is beyond explanation. I'm glad to have all of you in my life.

*i thought it would be better not naming all of you out individually*

take care and all the best ahead.I'll be here for you, if u still need me.
