High School Friends

This is, quite possibly, the BEST picture on my computer. Not only is it nicely proportioned and everyone is the perfect distance so you can see everything, the memories that go with it are great. I believe this is... Junior year? I think so. This was Spanish 1 with Ms. Guerrero. This is one of the most fun high school classes I ever took and it was probably because all of my friends were in it. We have Dalton, Josh, Blake, Me, Arielle, and Bryce (Will was in this class too, I have no idea where he is for this picture).

This class was so great because I wasn't really friends with everyone yet. I was pretty much only friends with Dalton. I mean, we all knew each other, but this is the reason I met Waffles and Joshua and now they are both really good friends of mine. I get to see these friends very little now. Everyone went off and did their own thing and went to college. I usually only see them when I go home for break now. With the few exceptions throughout the year.

I don’t miss high school. I didn’t like my school a whole lot. I didn’t like the rules. I didn’t like the detention. I don’t like authority in general. College gives you A LOT more freedom and the professors are cursing in their lectures here.

I do, however, miss my high school friends. Even the ones I didn’t talk to a lot of the time. They were just always there. Every day I went to school and saw these people, since 7^th grade year. (Even though the majority of my friends were made my freshman and sophomore year.) They were just always there. I was not part of any one group… I went back and forth a lot. Sometimes I would hang out with my football friends, then I would hang out with my girl friends, and sometimes I would hang out with random people that happen to be in the same situation as I. But I miss them all.

I enjoy my life just as much as I did in high school, don’t get me wrong. I love all of my new college friends and I couldn’t be more excited for what we get to go through together until our graduation in 2014/2015/2016. Sometimes it is nice to reminisce though, and this picture always brings the memories flooding back.
