so, i'm in the mood for warm and fuzzies.

and i know it's kind of cliche, but i think it's worth mentioning.
we're nearing the end of a major chapter in our lives. it's kind of profound. as far back as i can remember, i've gone to school. and kinder before that, but i have clearer memories of school. for thirteen years, it's all i've known. thirteen years out of the eighteen years i've been on this earth. it's so strange, when you really think about it. we feel like we've lived for so long, experienced so much. we think ourselves wise and mature. yet, in the grand scheme of things, we're barely adults. there are so many people who have lived twice as long as us, and experienced more than we can ever imagine. we've got so much more to do, so much longer to go. this is just one chapter of the many that will make up our lives. its kind of sad, to think we're at the end of this chapter. it's been such an enjoyable one, despite the way we've complained and whinged and griped through it. from here on in, we're catapulted into the 'real world' where so much will be expected of us, and everything will move at an incredibly fast pace. it scares me to think of it sometimes. other times, it excites me.

in any case, the purpose of this blog was to give kudos to some very special people who have been in my life and made it that much more amazing. and who i hope will continue to be in my life for many years to come. they know who they are, and even if they don't, i'm throwing it out there...you're all amazing. best friends a girl could ask for.
i don't know how i could have made it this far without you, so thankyou. thankyou for being there, for listening to me for hours on end when if i were in your shoes i would have slapped me and told me to deal with it. thankyou for the hugs, the laughter, the conversations, the tears, the memories, the shared secrets, the good times, just everything.
i love you more than i can say.

anyway, it's bedtime now.
i just had to put that out there.
