Is There a Doctor in the House? He's having a Nostalgic Reaction!

With Spring Break and prom approaching at light speeds it has not left much time to just sit down and think. Well today JP, Randall, and myself were chatting about Guilford Middle! Who would have thought that GMS would be missed so much? I certainly did not, but as we got to chatting I remembered just how much fun I had there. At the time I thought it was pretty lame, I'll admit, but now in retrospect it was fantastic! That got me to thinking about my previous years here at Western. At the time I remember thinking, "Man, I wish I was a senior. They are so cool." I was only half right. Seniors are SUPER cool; but, every other year was just as cool. I was so busy being ready to grow up that I forgot to enjoy the process to the fullest. I know everybody has their things they would change if they could go back. Well I would do that homework assignment. I would go out with those friends. I would tell that girl. I would be that kid, that kid that everyone looks at and knows that they do not let any opportunity go to waste.
After strolling down memory lane the thing that sticks out most in my mind of all are the people. The people that grew up with me. The people that I could depend on and the people that always had the right thing to say. The people that accepted me for me. The people that will be successes in life. The people that will drift away. The people that I will tell my grandkids about. I've already experienced losing a few of my friends to different schools and I still talk about them all the time. I can not imagine what it is going to be like when everyone goes there own way! I do not want to be in the real world. Call me greedy and selfish but, I want MY world!
