"Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Some stay for awhile and leave footprints on our hearts. And we are never, ever the same."

As much as I would like to believe this, it's not always true. People come and go into people's lives countless times and even if they do stay awhile, they don't always leave a mark on us. A few weeks ago, this random kid friended me on facebook. Now usually I just ignore random friend requests from people I don't know and if they're from Marriotts Ridge I just accept it even though I might not know them. All those underclassmen going facebook crazy. Anyways, it was different this time bcause this guy sent me a message along with the friend request. Totally didn't realize you could send people a message you weren't friends with. So he sends this message asking if I went to the Julia Brown Montessori School. By now I'm thinking...this is kinda weird. I replied that yeah I did go to that montessori school and I asked how he knew that. He replied with that we were the best of friends from Montessori school until 2nd grade when he moved. Apparently it was one of those everyday is a playdate type of friendship. This got me thinking, how do I not remember any of this? It's not even that I can't remember back that far. I remember a few little things from back that long ago that seem quite random, but I can't remember my apparent best friend? What's up with that? You'd think my only friend from that age would've had a lasting impression on me.

All that makes me wonder who else in my life right now will eventually move on and who will stay in my life. Who will truly make an impression on my life? In 40, 50 years who will i remember as being important to me? I honestly hope to not lose who I'm friends with at this moment. I hate drifting apart from people.

Something else has been on my mind lately. I've wondered why people cheat on their significant other. I mean if you're gonna cheat on the person, you obviously don't love them so why be with them? If you're with that person still for physical reasons that's just shallow. I don't really like where most relationships these days are going. Many of them are not based on love for the other person. I'm not saying every relationship is like that, just quite a few. Like for example, I heard about this couple from a friend that have been going out for two years. So you think that if they've been dating that long there's obviously gotta be something there. Nope. The guy broke up with the girl because they were going to college. Apparently he basically said that he didn't trust himself enough not to cheat on her while at college. I mean like wtf? Seriously? I hope that as a society we really aren't that shallow, but everyday I see more and more reasons that we are all indeed shallow. I don't think anyone is completely devoid of shallowness though you may think you are. As a society we base a lot of things off of personal appearance. That's what 99% of the people look for. Think about it, when you first see or meet someone, you immediately form an opinion about them. What's the thing people look at first? The person's looks and how they dress. Apparently people think that's the best way to judge people. Not gonna lie, I'm guilty of doing that too. Some people say that it's a biological thing for the way we base things off of looks and that we are attracted to and tend to go for people who are attractive because it's instinctual that that is the indication for a good mate. I think it's just an excuse. This posted started off much better than it ended.

Also, apparently I'm going clubbing sometime this summer. I can't see myself clubbing. What did I get myself into?

I really want to take a trip somewhere this summer.
