Life sometimes...

I wrote this a while back after a fun night - since I haven't posted in a while I figured I'd put it up - not that it will be read by anyone but that's fine. I also apologize for the kind of dreary tone of the post, but sometimes that's life :p 

Ahh tonight, an awesome night of partying with good friends and making memories that will hopefully help get us past the monotony of college. While it was a great time, filled with laughs and pong, karaoke and wrestling, I can't help but feel a bit of disappointment and perhaps even sadness at just how much this night means. For you see, the future is very uncertain with folks heading back to college to brave not only the storms of college work and demanding professors, but also of life choices with can very quickly take you away from friends - and from the memories you hope you'll never lose.

It is these times that I say to myself, god damn that was a lot of fun - but might that be the 'last one'? The last party, the last gathering of friends who have become such a close community? Everywhere you go, and all throughout life people have always said that in/after college you'll make new friends and lose old ones and as much as I hope that will never happen, despite what I may do to try and prevent that, it is turning out to be true. It is getting harder and harder to get people together, some of them having plans of their own and moving on with their lives.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not against people making new friends and spending time with them - heck we've accepted a few new people into our group recently, but it's this core group of friends that I wish would stay the same. Everything you could want in friends is here, in these people and this little community we have formed. It is that idea, those memories that have been made - and could be made with these people, the good times and the bad that I want to last.
