"One measure of friendship consists not in the number of things friends can discuss, but in the number of things they need no longer mention." -Clifton Fadiman
If I was being 100% honest with myself for once, I would honestly say that no, I'm not happy.
That's not flying, it's falling with style.

“A foolish man tells a woman to stop talking, but a wise man tells her that her mouth is extremely beautiful when her lips are closed”
The question I have the most trouble answering is "Tell me about yourself." I don't always mean that in the interview context, but just any sort of situation. Like I met someone who (whom? I still don't know the rule) I went to middle school with and she said, "I've been talking too much now it's your turn, you talk now." I opened my mouth to say something, but came up with nothing. I was utterly bewildered that I couldn't come up with anything. Now some would say that maybe it was the pretty girl I was talking to. Believe me, that wasn't it. Surprising, I know. I don't know why I couldn't come up with anything. So then, being the extremely smooth guy I am, I blathered on about nonsense. So later on I was thinking about what really made me...me. I came up with nothing. I don't really know who I am right now. I no longer know what makes me me. I don't know what I'm passionate about anymore. I'm completely lost. Hopefully I can figure out my life in this wonderful period of life called college education. Right now it's pretty much like I've been driving along and I've just realized I don't know where I'm going, but yet I just still keep on driving just hoping it ends up going where I need or want to be. I'm just a wandering turtle looking for his home.

"Joy is the simplest form of gratitude." -Karl Barth
The one thing I've regrettably done lately has been forget about old friends. We all assume they'll always be there for us like they have in the past, but we don't realize is that we are just taking them for granted. They may not always be there. True the ones who stick by you are the ones that matter, but it applies both ways. YOU need to show your friends that they matter to you enough for you to be there for them all the time. This is the thing I wish I realized before and hope to spread it to people I know. It makes me sad seeing people who've been friends for such a long time start to drift apart. We can all do something about it. Take a couple seconds and who your old friends you care about them. You can do it with your new friends too, but never ever forget the people who've been there for you in the past. You'll never know realize much you needed that person until it's too late if you don't...
