-Somewhere In Between-
> 
> Somewhere between the procrastination
> 
> And the homework
> And the incessant forwards
> And the new friendships
> And the nasty dorm food
> And the calls home complaining about roommates &
> lovers...
> 
> Somewhere between the phone calls to old friends
> 
> And the "I miss you's"
> And the "I love you's"
> And the "I can't wait to see you again's"...
> And somewhere between all of the changing &
> growing...
> 
> Somewhere between the classes
> 
> And the skipping classes
> And the studying for tests
> And the pretending to study for tests
> And the downright not studying for tests...
> 
> I forgot.
> 
> I forgot what it was like to be in high school.
> I forgot what it meant to cry.
> I forgot that pretending to be happy doesn't make
> you happy
> 
> And that pretending to be smart doesn't make you
> smart.
> 
> I forgot that you can't just forget the past.
> I forgot that you can't control falling in love
> And that you can't make yourself fall in love.
> 
> I learned that I can love.
> I learned that good food doesn't really seem great
> until you can't
> have it anymore.
> I noticed that I get along better with my mom now
> than ever before
> 
> And that wasn't because she changed, but because I
> changed.
> 
> I learned that going to university means making
> choices
> I learned that it's okay to mess up
> 
> And it's okay to ask for help
> 
> And it's okay to feel like crap.
> 
> I learned that sometimes the things you want most,
> you just can't have.
> 
> I learned that the greatest thing about university
> aren't the parties
> Or the drinking
> Or the hook-ups...
> 
> It's the chances.
> Taking the chances
> And then making the most of them.
> 
> I learned that sometimes the things we want to

> are the things which we most need to talk about.
> 
> I learned that once you get to university,
> 
> Things don't automatically get better...
> 
> It's what you make of them.
> 
> I learned that letters from friends are the most
> important thing
> And that sending cards to your friends makes you
> feel better.
> I learned that friendships can change
> 
> And it's ok for it to change,
> 
> And as long as you both accept these changes,
> you can still manage to be closer than ever.
> 
> But, basically,
> I just learned that my friends,
> Both old and new,
> Are the most important people to me in the world
> And without them, I wouldn't be who I am today.
> So this is a thank you to all of my friends
> For always being there

> And I care for you guys!
