There are some friendships that were doomed to end once you get your HS diploma.

A Letter to Old Friends

As you grow older, go to new schools, farther away from your home, your old high school friends begin to drift away slowly. Of course, it all really depends, you could always keep that friendship burning, as if you truly wish to be friends with that person, all it takes is communication here and there. This is a letter to those friends whom I have grown apart from, as I have made new ones where I study now.

Dear old friends, remember in our high school years? When we used to say we would be best friends for life, or always there for each other? Boy that has changed... I don't think we meant to drift apart, despite the closeness of our friendship in our high school years, it happens to everyone. There are always going to be friendships that you basically only have because you see that person every day, you don't exactly see each other outside of school, except for those occasions where preferred friends were not able to hang out. Which sounds horrible, but most of us know its true. I loved being close with those whom this letter is directed to, I cherish our memories, our jokes & laughs, and I can promise you I will never forget them ever. Friendships in high school either last a lifetime or last a few remaining years, it is just the sad truth. There are times I miss the people whom I have drifted from, who I don't communicate with whatsoever because the friendship was seemingly finished just as we threw our caps into the air on graduation. It just means maybe our friendship was temporary, which is basically true. We saw each other every day, we were essentially thrown into friendships, not expecting what would come from them.
Thank you for those years though, I wish all of those people a great life, with more people whom they will have great memories with, and the best of luck to their futures.

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer. And if you haven't already guessed, it's beer. There are few things I take more seriously than my beer, in order are: sports... and beer. Here are my favorite summer brews:

Bruce Springsteen's Top 7 Lyrics

Everything Bruce says in his classic rock songs.

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire. I have learned many valuable lessons away from home, and have thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in Pennsylvania. One thing that my experience has taught me, however, is that it is absolutely impossible to beat a New England summer.
