Back To The Oldies...

So I have started to hang out with some of my older friends, which is weird because they are the younger ones.  Over the past week, we all know that Thanksgiving occurred, and being in the school that I am in, I got off a week from school.  My "older" friends, such as Colton, Dylan, Ryan, other people that you won't know, are fun sometimes, and since I haven't hung out with them for a long period of time, it was fun over this week.  But after too long of being around them, I start to get annoyed.  As anyone would know that knows me, I hate stupid people, and annoying people fall into that category.  So after the 5 years of only having them as a friend, I realized that maybe if I just get away from them for a little, then I will appreciate my time with them more.  And it worked.  I had a great Thanksgiving break and it was mainly because I spent most of my time with my friends, "older" friends.  

My Thanksgiving itself was amazing too.  I went over to my mom's parent's place to celebrate the holiday and we had a great time.  And I do miss the old days, where I used my imagination to have fun instead of technology and money.  I really do miss going out to the near-by field with my friends and a couple of fake guns and pretending like we were in the army and had to fend off 50,000 enemy soldiers, cause that's how we spent our time.  I am using my time more productively now, but not necessarily having fun doing it.  I love the time that I spent with my friends.  I wouldn't be able to live without it.  I just wish that I had more of it.  Sooner than I expect, I'll be out of high school, looking for colleges, and my friends will decide to go to different colleges or start a family or move out of the state.  All of those would suck, for the fact that I don't want to loose my friends.  I have some of the best friends that anyone could ask for, and if I loose them, I don't know what I will do.  Like for example, my best buds and I have planned to go on a big road trip once all of us turn 17, and that's right when we need to be cracking down the hardest, the ACT's or PSAT's, finding a college, getting accepted into that college.  So much stuff that it might interfere with that road trip, but seriously, we have been planning that trip since we were 10.  That's 5 years ago for people who don't know how old I am now.  And one of the suckier things about the trip is that I am the youngest one going on the trip, like the people that are going are Colton, Brook, and I; and I am the youngest.  Brook and Colton are already 16.  Brook only has 4 more months until he turns 17, and I won't even be 16 by the time that he turns 17.  So that really sucks that they are all waiting on me.

But I guess the only way to keep the time that we have together is to enjoy it to the fullest.  I mean there will always be change.  You can't stop it.  And it sucks.  I wish that it was just possible to find the best time of your life and just live in that time for the rest of your life.  That would be amazing, and a dream.  

Life goes on...
