So lately I have been noticing a lot of things in my life that are changing, some major like school, friends, what I want for my future and others minor like my glasses prescription…. Not like the internet needs to know these things but I like bringing them up anyways . So I decided to go on Facebook (Like I do everyday) but instead of creeping other peoples profiles, I decided to take a look back into mine. I began at the start of things, looking at all my pictures from grade 9, then through high-school and now college. I noticed that basically all of my photos until now only have my family in them. All the trips we have gone on, family get-togethers, the random pictures of Caleb and I, this made me realize that I actually never have a really close set of my friends, all I have ever had was my family. Now I’m not saying I didn’t have friends, I’m saying I never had someone in my life I would consider my “Best friend”, it’s not like I didn’t try to have a best friend, I did… But it would always end up her finding someone else or it just not working out. In most cases I was that awkward link floating around with nothing to attach to. Ya I felt left out sometimes but I’m good at being alone but it’s always nice to have a rock. You know that person that will ALWAYS be there for you not matter what, they’re the ones that keep you grounded whenever you start to fly away. This to me has always been my mom, but she’s my mom and it’s not like I can tell her everything without her having a heart attack. I thought this would end when I came to college since there is more diversity here then there is in Beaverlodge, obviously, but once again I was mistaken. For my college friends that might possibly skim over this with interest, I’m not looking for pity, everyone in my life now is wonderful but they all already have a pair.I’m OK with that, I’ve always been the “family before friends” type of person. It’s just strange how I’ve never really realized this before….
