1019 Words5 Pages

“You will always be my best friend,” words that seem so unbreakable at the time. Middle of my freshman year, and I sit in history, right next to my so-called “best friend” not saying a word. People always say that your friends in high school change, but I certainly did not think that would come true my freshman year. Everything happened so suddenly, one week we were hanging out, and the next, we were trying to avoid eye contact in the hallway. I understand that friends fight, and we have fought several times, but this one had a different vibe to it, I could tell things were changing. Since sixth grade, it had always been us four.

I couldn’t sit around and waste away the rest of my year, hoping they would care about me again, so I had to move on too. All the exciting ideas and plans we had made would, I would experience with new people. I had opened myself up and made new connections with new people.

    For two years not one person told me I had looked happy. It was simple, but it clicked and made me realize that I did not need the negativity that I had lived in the shadows of for so long. I was more important than the relationship and I wanted more out of life than the inconsiderate person I saw in the mirror behind the foggy glasses. I wanted to be free of the ridicule and negativity from my peers and family that surrounded my day-to-day life. I wanted to have friends again, and most of all I wanted to be successful.

    Reflecting back I don’t think there’s a single thing I’d change, from the very few bad times, to all the great times of laughter and pure awesomeness. High school has been fun, and I am going to miss it, but although my time at Skyview is over, it is only up to me if the fun never ends. I’ll miss the sports, winning a state championship, going to class and all the inside jokes, playing sports that I’ve never played before and making new friends with all sorts of amazing people. But most of all I’ll probably miss my friends, and all the weird stuff they say and do and how awesome they make every moment that would otherwise be not nearly as cool. Yes, I will miss them.
