I started thinking about this today...
High school.
While it wasn't the greatest period of my life, it really was a special time now that I look back on it. I always thought all my friends would keep in touch forever. Most of us lost touch for a while, but suddenly I'm reconnecting with so many people I've known for the past 6 to 15 years. It's crazy...people I last saw in 8th grade are all grown up now. Here we are, having babies, getting engaged, finishing school, making lives for ourselves.
I cried at my 8th grade graduation. I mean, that was earth shattering for most of us, since a lot of kids from my class were moving on, branching out and going on to different high schools, instead of coming back to the same school for the following year (our school was preschool through 12).
I feel like maybe I missed something along the way, or maybe it's just logical now that I'm sort of longing for those years again. I wish I had held on better to memories and moments and that...that I didn't have so many regrets.
Anyway, here's to the class of '04...Much love.

And so we talked all night about the rest of our lives
Where we're gonna be when we turn 25
I keep thinking times will never change
Keep on thinking things will always be the same
But when we leave this year we won't be coming back
No more hanging out cause we're on a different track
And if you got something that you need to say
You better say it right now cause you don't have another day
Cause we're moving on and we can't slow down
These memories are playing like a film without sound
And I keep thinking of that night in June
I didn't know much of love
But it came too soon
And there was me and you
And then we got real blue
Stay at home talking on the telephone
We would get so excited and we'd get so scared
Laughing at ourselves thinking life's not fair
And this is how it feels
[1] - As we go on
We remember
All the times we
Had together
And as our lives change
Come Whatever
We will still be
Friends Forever
So if we get the big jobs
And we make the big money
When we look back now
Will our jokes still be funny?
Will we still remember everything we learned in school?
Still be trying to break every single rule
Will little brainy Bobby be the stockbroker man?
Can Heather find a job that won't interfere with her tan?
I keep, I keep thinking that it's not goodbye
Keep on thinking it's a time to fly
And this is how it feels
[Repeat 1]
La, la, la, la:
Yeah, yeah, yeah
La, la, la, la:
We will still be friends forever
Will we think about tomorrow like we think about now?
Can we survive it out there?
Can we make it somehow?
I guess I thought that this would never end
And suddenly it's like we're women and men
Will the past be a shadow that will follow us 'round?
Will these memories fade when I leave this town
I keep, I keep thinking that it's not goodbye
Keep on thinking it's a time to fly
[Repeat 1 (3x)]
