LIFE

I havent written in here in so long. I know pretty much no one will ever read this but i havent written in any kind of journal in a long time. Its crazy how much friends change throughout high school. You loose some and you gain some. These past couple of years have gone by really fast and I'm really happy with some of the experiences ive encountered, esspecially this summer. I went to Spain and France. I kayaked the Mediterranean, hiked the Pyranees and the French alps, water water rafted, and got to experience the culture of Barcelona, Nice, and Paris. It was amazing because I have never been to europe before and I've never climbed mountains like that before. It wasn't only a great experience, but it was a physical challenge as well. I made a llot of good friendships with people from all over the country and I'm really happy to have met them. It was a great chance to get away from all the fucking crap that is going on here. I cant believe some of the friends i have. Carolyn wont stop getting herself into more problems and it makes me fucking worry about her. Pretty much everyone hates eachother and talks behind everyones backs, and im stuck in the middle of all of it. I cant stand it sometimes. I just want to get new friends because im so tired of all the bullshit. Taking a break from everything was amazing. But you wann aknow what happend the second i got home? I hung out with Catherine and all she did was talk about every specific thing that happend while I was gone, and all that came out of her mouth was DRAMA. I hardly spoke a word about my trip. It sucked and it really made me realize how sick i was of everyone and everything. I know i have to realize that this is how it is and i need to STOP making meaning out of it all. I need to look forward to the good things. Like senior year. I couldn't be more happy about that. And in one year from now ill be off to college. thank god...really thank god...
