Reconnect
Hello children.
We should have made this thing 3rd quarter of junior year…
Lauren, god I want to go see Yelle. I’m jealous. I’ve been going out so much lately my parents have gotten so fed up with my shit. I wish I could tell them that I sort of understand but let’s be serious, I’m far too stubborn to admit that to my parents. I think they’re getting the whole second semester senior thing though (or at least my dad is…I don’t think my mom ever will…”RA-EE, ZIS IS NOT A JOKE” *that was for you Leland*).
My latest act of SSSism:
Last night, instead of studying for my Bio test (I still love you Axe because you are awesome and you lived as a ski bum for a year with that lady at that place doing…yeah) I reconnected with my old elementary school friends. I was video chatting with my friend Sophia and we decided to browse through some old yearbooks and on the inside of the back cover, I found a note from one of my best friends I knew way back in second grade and a photo of him, his twin, and me. It read:
Dear Raeye,
I will miss you a lot. Don’t forget me.
Love, Aaron
(he and his sister moved to Denver after second grade)
My heart pretty much exploded and so we decided to, of course, find Aaron and his twin sister Becky on facebook. And sure enough…we did! And hell yeah I friend requested their asses in a heartbeat and we’ve been messaging ever since.
A bunch of my elementary school friends and I sort of had planned to have an unofficial reunion before graduation (which started this whole reconnecting thing) but to be honest with you, I really didn’t think it was going to happen. But now it is! This Friday!
So….pretty much, I don’t care about how translocation moves organic shit, about how the motherfucking xylem closer to the center of the stem is actually the old shit, and the one farthest is the new shit, and whatnot. I’m glad I blew off that test because in my eyes, getting in touch with these kids again after 10 years completely makes up for a nastynast grade on some plant test.
