Day After

I'm so sad, and yet I'm really happy at the same time.
Today is the day after the last day of school. It feels so strange to not be getting up early in the morning and getting ready for another long, but interesting, day of school. I actually got up at six and was about to get ready for my imaginary school day when I realized I had around eleven or more weeks without school. When I went back to bed, it felt like I was skipping school. xD

These past two years in middle school were probably the best school years I have ever had. I met tons of great people like Rachel and Sam (two of my best friends from school) and got to go to school with older friends like Brittany (also on a blogger!) and Leah (Life-long best friend).
I have to say that eighth grade was the best school year, though. There were a ton of tough, sad times, but the happy times and my friends are what made it worth it. If I had the choice to rewind and relive the year, I probably would; especially if I could relive just after Valentine's Day up to now. I had all my friends, and we had so much fun. We were all super retarded at times, which made it all the more fun. We had sad times, and serious times, too. All in all, this school year was so great, I hated that it ended.
When good things end, some of the good has to continue. I know a lot of my friends will still be with me in high school, and I know I will stay in touch with those who aren't going to the same high school. It's just sad about those who won't be going to the same high school has me, because I won't be able to see them as much. There will be times where I'll have to go weeks, or months, without seeing one of those particular friends. But, it's good that I won't totally go without seeing them.
I'm particularly worried about Rachel; I won't get to see her much. I can't go to every band practice (My friends have their own band, I'll probably post about them tomorrow, or sometime really early in the morning if I'm still up) and see her. I wonder how our relationship will be over the summer; and how it will be throughout highschool? But I'm not going to really go into that right now.

The last period of the day was the most dismal. Our English teacher sang a very beautiful, stirring song that basically told us to have good lives and wished us well. Just when she finished singing, it was time for the enrichment video. The video was a slide show of a lot of the events that happened this year. Of course, the music on it was the Graduation Song, by Vitamin C. By the end of the day, and the video, over half the class was crying. That includes myself, unfortunately. I really hadn't expected to cry, but I did.

I'm happy that school is out, though. It's finally time to hang out, celebrate, and have has much fun as possible! My birthday is next week on Tuesday (June 10th), and I'm having a party on Friday the 13th. That will be fun. Of course, I'll blog about both days.

I'll stop being bi-polar and changing from feeling strange, to sad, to happy again. I hope I didn't make you depressed with this blog! Haha
