friendships


so i am back living in the blessed island of oahu, loving the sun, and enjoying the amazing education that i am so privilaged to get here. so why do i feel sad.... ill tell you why. because i came to byuh in 2006 not knowing anyone, just being a soccer girl that was excited to be in hawaii playing soccer and living the dream. i had a roommate names Emily Mearns. and a best friend named Ashley Hunter. they have been on this road with me from the beginning, we each have learned, grown, time tested, cried, screamed, and cheered together and when i think about hawaii they are always a part of it. so now im sitting in hawaii, and the last two that started this journey with me are no longer here. how do i feel about that... i dont' like it one bit i want them back here with me. i want the drama of the house that i lived/couch crashed. i want the same personalities to be able to greet me when i walk in the door drenched from a tropical downpour! but alas, that will not be because change is a part of life and right now that change doesn't involve us being together. but that doesn't mean that i miss them any less.
