Hello everyone, sorry for the long lapse between updates. Christmas has come and gone. And, New Years has come and gone too. It is now the year 2005, I was startled to realize that this is the year i graduate, every since i've understood graduation i've known the year 2005. It has finally come, but i don't know what to think. Should i be excited that i'm about to expand my life by going off to college, knowing that i will meat new friends? I'm unclear if this is something that i'm excited for, or something that i fear.
What if i don't see my friends ever again. What if something happens that makes everyone go in their own separate ways? How do I know if it will ever be the same. I have experienced many great things these past years. One is all of the knowledge that i have acquired. Who knew that we could learn so many great things. Another is the many friendships that i have gained, some that i hope will last me the rest of my life. Another great thing that i have experienced is having a girlfriend, i learned many things that hopefully made me a better person. With a girlfriend, i have also experienced a break-up. I believe that I learned a lot from this too. Through my life i have lost so many things... and people. But from adversity i have grown into the person i now am. And i know that one reason that i am the way i am is because all of my great friends that each have influenced me in their own individual way. I'm thankful everyday that God has put all of you into my life. And i hope that nothing happens to any of you that would cause us to break ties.
I know that i have done many wrongs, some of these that have hurt my friends, for this I am sorry. I never want to do anything that would cause problems upon my friends. But i also hope that as we pass on to other places, that we will grow, and acquire new friends upon which we will learn new things. Thank you to all of you that have been such great friends and that have taught me more than you will ever know. I hope that you too become stronger when controversy steps into your path. I am forever grateful for all of you. I hope that God watches over you and protects in whatever you do or become. I know that every one of my friends can reach a great potential. Look up at the Stars, and know that someday you will find true happiness. I'll always be there if any of you ever need something.
Keep it real. Irish Midget.

You probably don't even know that I read this every now and then, but I wanted you to know that I'm very proud of you... you are an amazing guy! Next year will be different... but that's good. You will meet new people and some you'll really like and some you really won't... but you'll never forget the people who have changed your life. The truth is, you'll never be the same... and that's good, too. Change is scary, but never changing is even scarier. Even though friends go their separate ways and even though you sometimes never see each other again, you never lose that piece of you. You always remember... and that's good. Don't worry about how often you'll see people or how long it is between visits... friendships last forever, no matter how much space or time gets in the way. You can always pick up where you left off... it's THAT good. Besides, with every new person you meet, that's just one more awesome person to introduce to the rest of your friends. Just have faith and believe in yourself... I know I do!
