I Feel I'm Losing the Friendships with People from Hungry Creek

After my first year of high school, I've realized how much of a change I've gone through. See, before the year started, I wanted nothing more than to go to Tucker and stay with my middle school friends. But no, I was instead thrown into a high school filled with kids I hadn't seen in ages...okay it was two years...same thing. I didn't know anyone there. That or I had forgotten about some people and had trouble remembering who they were. I felt miserable the first month. I missed my friends and couldn't wait till the football game between Hermitage and Tucker. But in the mean time, I had to make some friends at Hermitage, plus meet some other friends that I hadn't spoken to in a while. It didn't take long either. Before long, I was now loving Hermitage. The people there were totally awsome and just like me.

Then the Tucker game came...

I was nervous during the ride to the stadium. I didn't know what I was going to say to people. Could our friendships survive the summer before the school year? Would any of the Tucker people changed from the middle school days? Well, first off, our friendships did survive and not many had changed from the previous year. My fears were now gone. I imediately started to bond with the friends I had longed miss. Some friends I had found right away, and some I went searching for. By golly, I was going to find my friends. And I found them. They all looked the same, but apparently I had changed. My height was the first thing everyone noticed and talked about. I mean damn, you guys know I've always been tall...why are you now just realizing this?

As the night went on, the time with my Tucker friends was slowly running out. I knew that the end was coming and bid my goodbyes. Damn, I can't believe I would have to wait another year just to see them again. I would have to wait a whole nother school year to see Jack, Erich, Samantha, Samantha, Alex, Fahd (ah, he never showed to the game anyway), Marvin, and just about everyone else.

But as I was riding home...it hit me. I was not sad at all! In fact, I couldn't wait till Monday to see my Hermitage friends.

Damn...do you know how bad I felt about having that feeling(???)?

Anyway, I'm not mad about coming to Hermitage. I found my Brookland and Glen Allen friends here, made new crushes, made the same foes, and made a buttload of new friends. In fact, when the year started, my top 24 on myspace was all Tucker. Now, when I look at it...the number is at three. That's a minus of 21 people! My Herm friends have gotten me to almost forget the Tucker people.

Ah, oh well. I like my Herm friends better anyway. Then some people at Tucker, with the Deep run people closing in.

Plus as of now, there's no one or place I need to sneak out too..
