So I never got to write in your yearbook. I thought it’d be fitting to write a message to you, Jimmy, and Kev in lieu of a yearbook message before I go. In typical Kevin procrastinater fashion, I am doing this at 12:06AM the day I move in. To think that in 14 hours I will be at SD. In 8 hours I hope to be eating noodles with you and the other guys.
I remember that you ate lunch with me and Kev during our stint at McGarvin. I think it wasn’t until during 9th or 10th grade that we started talking. First through aim, but then using email as a means to talk about more delicate matters. And by delicate I mean sex. Ok not really. But all the same it was comforting, knowing that I had someone who’d listen to my (lack of) romantic escapades, and I’d listen back. Quid pro quo, as it were. I remember playing messenger between you and (your then interest) Ngan. Sidebar: I never ever had a thing for her. Back to the story. It sucks that it never worked out for you guys, but it was even better that you move on, a testament to your…movingonness awesomeness.
I am ashamed to say that during the summer after 10th grade we had a sort of falling-out. I think it was just over stupid things like I would just diss and hate on you for being lazy or bored or “apathetic” and that was really fucked up of me. I don’t even remember what we were all so steamed over. Fuck it, the point is you didn’t deserve it and I haven’t really felt right about our friendship since then. I’ve always felt this sort of strain between us, and it’s a shame fucking sucks penis because you’re a really good friend. I’m really sorry for being such a goddamn douchebag to you back then. Things seem to have gotten better for us in the past year or so-especially this summer. I don’t want a rift to form between us over something so stupid and insignificant. I really do hope that we’re on the path to becoming great buddies again.
You’re my single greatest connection to the anime world, and I expect you to keep me posted on anything good that comes out (including AX stuff). For sure I’ll try the direct download sites that you suggested. I don’t want to have to stoop to like…crunchyroll…shudder..Moreover, I’m sorry for never having gotten around to writing any reviews for anime like I said I would. I guess I’m just too lazy of a bastard. I think I like to watch anime more than I like to write about it, sorry dude. I hope you continue to use the site to hone your web coding skills though. Maybe in the future I’ll get off of my ass and write something decent. Best of luck to you though.
Like I’ve said before, don’t think of me leaving as a “goodbye”, think of it as a “two month brb guys”. Cause I’ll be back for Thanksgiving for sure. I’m totally looking forward to black friday camping (ok I’m really gonna buy stuff this time-XBOX 360 YES) and Jimmy’s big one-eight. Your birthday’s in October right? If I am free, I can conceivably make it to your birthday too. I hope I can. Cause I just know it’s gonna be wild.
But make sure you make the most of your time in college dude. Put yourself out there, try something new. Maybe rush some clubs that interest you. Attend some social events and expand your horizons. Meet a bunch of new people. Live with no regrets and leave no stone unturned. Most of all though, just have fun (but keep your grades high too!).
Stay quirky and weird, Michael. Cause you’re cool like that.
I’m really gonna miss you.
P.S., no worries about my monitor, cause for all I know the scratch could be cosmetic.
