I was talking to a friend of mine, who I used to go tutor with and although it's only been around 6 months since our tutor class has split, I miss them so much.
It made me look back on these past 6 months and realise how much has changed.

Even at school, I see the same people everyday and yet the feeling is different.
I miss the relationships I used to have with people. I really want to have that back but being the awkward person that I am, it's been a bit hard for me. I've been drifting from some people I used to be good friends with and a part of it is because we are all changing I guess but I think that although we are different people, I still think it's possible for some of these friendships to be rekindled but as I said I'm so awkward and I don't really know how to go about it. I miss these friendships so much though.

I was at the library the other day and a whole bunch of people from my original junior class were there and I realised just how much I missed them. There's of course the memories of being with them, that I miss, but they are also really great people and I can't help but miss having such great company. Being in my new year 11 classes, gave me a new found appreciation for how amazing the class was.

As humans we build so many relationships we so many different people but I think there is somewhere deep inside me that holds each relationship that I have, and have had, dearly. I just hope that the more special relationships I have with people last very long because I hate having this feeling of nostalgia and regret for not maintaining these relationships.

People come in and out of our lives, and the true test of friendship is whether you can pick back up right where you left off the last time you saw each other.
