So, I was listening to "Last Summer" by Lostprophets, and I realised how relevant the lyrics our to me and my friends right now. It properly sums up how I'm feeling at the minute - and I really don't want to leave them.
The Friday sun bears down again
As we drive without friends
And on these longest days we spend
All the time trying to pretend
That our stories could be true
Our chance to be cool
The setting sunset says the day is through
If only we knew...
And we all sit around here in our home town
Listen to the waves as they all crash down
And watch the fire as it slowly burns away
Glowing embers fly across the sky
Here by my side, in my summer, our last summer
The world passes by in my summer, our last summer
The light makes shadows fall, surrounded by each other
Alive to watch it all, the view from our last summer
The view from our last summer...
We trace the sun across the sky
And we laugh till we cry
Always so hard to say goodbye
And we all sit round here in our home town
It's so good like this, these are times we'll miss
The memories, I hope they'll never fade
Glowing embers lie across the sky
Here by my side, in my summer, our last summer
The world passes by in my summer, our last summer
The light makes shadows fall, surrounded by each other
Alive to watch it all, the view through our last summer
The view from our last summer...
I would stop time to stay with you
I would stop time so we don't move
I would stop time
I would stop time
I would stop time to keep you
Here by my side, in my summer, our last summer
The world passes by in my summer, our last summer
The light makes shadows fall, surrounded by each other
Alive to watch it all, the view from our last summer
The bits that I've bolded and underlined are the bits that I feel are most relevant. The verse that I've underlined sums up my feelings right now - I'm really worried that I'll forget my friends, and I'll forget the times I've had with them. I'm worried that in thirty years, I'll be logged onto friendsreunited.com trying to remember the names of everybody in our friendship group because I love you all so much. I don't want to leave you, and I don't want to forget you.
I can't believe that we leave in a week and a half. It seems like only yesterday I was at the school for an induction day, being so nervous that I spent the majority of the time with Mrs Jones - knowing only Jamie Allison, Jamie Burrel, Ruby and Jasmin in our whole form. To think that now, I would happily go up to almost all of them and start a conversation.
I've formed so many new and special friendships - my wifey, my best friends, my p.e buddies. I'll even miss the enemies i've made because I'll miss the times we've spent moaning about them or teaming up against them in P.E
I'll miss you all so much, and I hope more than anything we'll stay together.
I love you.
