live music and spotlights set the scene for yet another night on the town with the one and only ashley, as we venture into the city to celebrate my graduation.
we take the T in, and walk around the common till it rains water droplets the size of dimes on our heads and we have to run for cover under trees, and in train stops, finally stopping in the nearest starbucks. with coffee to warm our chilled bones, and the rain subsided we set out for our destination, the wang theater. our venue, michael buble.
after much anticipation and whispered discussions with the adorable old couple seated beside us, the show began.
i cried, laughed, sang, and smiled. i dont think you could have gotten me anything better ashley, not that i really needed anything at all. but it was perfect, because these memories that we have now, that we create, will last me far longer than any material thing.
but you know what else. our friendship, it is timeless. as in, yes, i will leave for school, and so will you, and we wont see each other for weeks maybe. but when we do again, it will be like yesterday, or last sunday was the last time we saw each other.
but i will miss you. i will miss your smile, and laugh, and all the amazing fun we have. and i am sure i will need your support and phone calls when i leave, because this little girl will probably be homesick and i know i will miss you.
like i miss paige. i cried when he sang home,
another summer day
has come and gone away
in paris and rome
but i wanna go home...
maybe surrounded by
a million people i,
still feel all alone
and i want to go home
oh, i miss you, you know.
because it was so beautiful, and also because i only thought of you when he sang. i read those words in your profile and my heart is sad. but to hear them come to life, and have body and soul, all i could think of was how much i missed you, and how much i wish (selfishly) that you didnt have to leave. because well... something just seems to be missing when you arent around.
