[Feel Good, Inc.]
Three months since my last post. Three months.
Why? Nothing has happened really. I graduated from High School, I suppose that's worth mentioning. I got a new job at Staples selling office machines.
Aside from that, nothing incredible has happened.
So why am I posting all of a sudden? I have to note something, whether for myself or some other reason, I don't know. I just have to write it out.
Just over a year ago I met an incredible person. She was going through a hard time then, so I did the little I could to help her through it. Looking back, I really didn't do anything for her at all, but for some reason at the time she seemed really appreciative.
That summer she started going out with her best friend and was very happy, I didn't see or hear much from her, but I knew she was happy, and I didn't mind.
That fall, she and the guy broke up, once again, I did what I could to help her through the time (once again, I didn't do anything really; heh).
We started talking more often and we played more games online, I tried to fix her computer when the parts she ordered weren't working right together, and I visited her at school.
Throughout the spring we played more games online, mostly World of Warcraft (yeah, we're nerds like that), kept in touch, and this summer I was going to play paintball with her and her friends, but she messed up her ankle so I just played with her friends.
I've been through a few tough times myself, and I try not to bother everyone else with them, mainly leaving my venting to my writing, here or otherwise. When I needed to talk to someone about something though, she was there for me. She's an incredibly strong person, and no matter what happens to her, she always bounces back.
What's the point of this rant? Well, by the end of this week, she's leaving for college again, and I'll still be here, until January, when I ship out for the Navy. I'll be gone for six years, and this could be the last time I see her, at least for a long time.
I'm terrible with words, if you haven't noticed. There's no way that I can think of to put into words what I really want to say, but I'll try my best...
We've only known each other for a short time, but there's something between us that I think is unique. No, it's no kind of attraction, but something else. In less than two years time, I feel more comfortable with her than with anyone else I know. I feel like if I needed to, I could tell her everything I'm thinking of, and not have any worry about what she's thinking.
I can't trust people easily, it's not in my nature, but I would trust her with my life and more; and have no worry about anything wrong happening.
If she reads this, she'll definately know she's the one I'm writing about, I just wanted to say that I wouldn't trade anything for the time we've had together, and I hold our friendship higher than anything else I've ever had or will have. I cherish the time we've spent together, and I know that anyone else who gets to have the same chance I did to be your friend is a lucky person.
