Almost Grade Nine

The First Year Has Passed

After school tomorrow, the first year of five will pass. It's going to be great to be grade nine next year, but as we grow older, we leave the past lives that we used to live behind us, forgotten and neglected.

Today was kind of like a last day type of theme. Although we still go to school tomorrow (it's just all our blocks are shortened to 25 minutes), I cannot help but feel like today was our last day together as grade eights. Next year we'll have changed through the summer, most of us for the better, while some of us will fall.

All in all, it's been a great first year for me.

Groups

I've been in a lot of groups. The things about groups though, are that you get to know people. This is natural of course, as you interact with everybody. But the thing is, most groups split because of one reason. Relationships.

Say you've got this nice little group of four people. Two guys, two girls, just to make it even. We'll call them Boy 1, Boy 2, Girl 1, and Girl 2. So say Boy 2 and Girl 1 get to know each other, and then they start dating. Sure, it's all great for a while, but then, all of the sudden, they break up. They don't want to talk to each other or see each other, and the group slowly disintegrates until it is nothing but a faded memory.

It's sad what feelings can do.

Wrap This Post Up

Sorry for the boring post. Thought it would just be obligatory to put one up since I haven't in a while.

I'd have to say I'm a 7. There's still a lot of things I need to settle in life, and not until after that then I can really just enjoy life.
