Shout out to my pals!

Okay...I just found this stashed away in a random file; I apparently wrote it on the one year anniversary of our graduation (excluding David).

It’s been one year today: one year ago we parted ways knowing little of our future and clinging tightly to the memories of the past. In the midst of gathering families, frantic photos, unsightly jobs of packing, pomp and circumstance, billowing gowns, and threatening tears, we said goodbye. Uncertainty had shrouded our separation as the prospect of never seeing each other again loomed. Pathetic fallacy had morphed the initially bright morning into a hazy state of gloom as the ceremonies had worn on, the crowd had thinned, and the unavoidable parting neared. Clutching resolutely to the time left, we had seemed tethered to the lamp post, our secure meeting place. But, the time eventually came, and the dread word was spoken: goodbye.

            Now, one year later, we still stand as we did then: as friends. Our unfounded fears that time would wear on the sweet friendships made in years of trial and laughter have been disproven. The traditional theme of changing friends when changing places has been defied. With the dawning of our graduation, the test began: and we passed! Our bonds of friendship were tried and found secure; tested and made stronger; stretched and found fast. The sun now shines brightly on the friends scattered around the continent. Though we've never once all jammed together, eaten together, argued together, laughed all together, played any Apples to Apples together, or sipped coffee together, we are still friends and forever will be!
