It's June, 3 weeks away from Summer Vacation. This year was just a big blur. New faces came into the picture and old faces disappeared. Some people emerged in my life in a new light, and others shimmered down to tiny bits of dust. Quite frankly, everything has gone by so fast that I barely know what to think of it as. As I finally get comfortable and start enjoying the presence of all the people around me, it's about time to go. Even though every part of me know that this is true, I always have trouble coping. Nothing is forever. The hardest struggles come with the greatest benefits. I've worked this hard to get this focused and this far into the game. I simply can't give up now. All of this can't be in vain. I'm forever lucky to be able to have the relationships with the people in my life. There is no other way that anybody in the world can have relationships like these. Truly, I appreciate you all. I really do. Even if I get frustrated, bossy, or just plain jerky, I never mean it.  It's all out of spite. To each and everyone of those that are dear to me, you may not know it- but I'm actually quite attached to each and everyone of you. Certainly, without even knowing it- each of you are able to give me certain qualities that I lack myself. Every one of you guys contribute to who I am today and who I will be. So, thank you for making me smile. Thank you for being here. Thank you for dealing with me. Thank you for being amazing.
