im beginning to except that i am leaving. im so freaking grateful for all of my friends here. becuase every ounce of my happiness i owe to them. they have pulled me through childhood. into my teenage years and half way through them. and i am happy with everything ive done. i know theres nothing i can change. i just love it here. i cant believe i ever wanted to leave. especially now since i have found a guy that gives a damn. and i cant believe im going to leave all these people behins. weve made plans on growing up and going to college together. i dont know whats ahead. but now i know my head is on straight and i will make new friends. but i can honestly say, my best friends will always be here in hickory.
