So…tomorrow’s the day, I guess, and I’m attempting to make this as short and sweet and simple as possible because I know, once I get started, I won’t be able to stop and I’ll get extra sad and I really want to prevent that so here we go.

Tomorrow will be filled with so many emotions and I know I won’t react well if I think about it too hard, but for the select few seniors that I’ve had the privilege to get to know, I want to thank you guys, you’ve been some of the most influential people in my life whether I show it or not and my sophomore year has definitely been memorable and life truly begins for you guys after graduation, but you’re all going to go off and do great things, I have no doubts about that statement, and I just really love some of you guys and you’ve really shown me true friendship and leadership and man, you guys just really rock, and all during the summer I want to hang out with you guys and make the most of it while we still can but I’m not an idiot, we still have social networking but once you get to college or wherever you’re going, you’re in a new scene and things will be different but I’m trying not to think about that but I want you guys to enjoy yourselves and know that you are truly amazing people and I just don’t know how to truly and utterly give you all my gratitude and say that you’ve changed me for the better and I want to laugh and cry and be nostalgic and hug you and wish you the best because you all deserve it and regardless this is all one run-one sentence and I’m okay with that.

Good luck. I love you all.

The intro to I Will Possess Your Heart by Death Cab, albeit four and a half minutes, puts me into this calm and kind of empowered trance like I’m some kind of character in a movie and this is the background music as I walk into the sunset in some suburban neighborhood with my tennis shoes and ripped jeans off to take on the world by myself

lol what

ignore me

Listening to Coldplay and slowly becoming sad and nostalgic and scared of the unknown future.

Instead I’m going to procrastinate with my homework and blast my music library and stare at the beautiful sunset that always remembers to shower itself over my quiet neighborhood. Breathe.
