Fuck "Friends Forever"

So I'm definitely moving to a different floor next semester. I'm moving in with a guy named Thor, who wears a microsoft programming team jacket, has two vintage slide rules, and is in my DnD group here at college. I told him that I was going to inherit a slide rule for Christmas. Thing is, when Mum and I were talking about this, I was kinda leaning toward the Think Geek slide rule, and now I'm definately prefering the heirloom one. Hopefully Mum reads this soon.

You know that song that they'd always play at every single graduation ever, whether it was from grade school, or even just within grades? I liked that song for the longest time, because I'm a music lover and the sweetly sad emotions it invoke in me are particularly strong, even still. Problem is, I get sick of that feeling quickly, and I've never had that myself. I mean, sure I've left pleanty of friends behind, I left my whole group behind when I graduated from middle school into a school out of the district. Thing is, it never really got to me. Either I wasnt actually leaving anybody behind, as with my current group in Seattle, or really I didn't fit in very well.

Today I really just didn't want to work on my paper, so instead I decided to watch a couple episodes of Firefly (seeing as I'd just brought the series back from home). Soon, my friend, Aaron, calls me up, and I hadn't seen him for a while (he hadn't been coming to class for weeks) we get together to watch Firefly. Thing is, he tells me that he's been accepted into UW, and chances are he'll be gone by the end of the week. Furthermore, UW doesn't accept WSU credits, which is why he hadn't been showing up to class. So, essentially this was my last chance to see him.

So we spend the time watching Firefly and talking about how cute Kaylee is. We also talk about how much it sucks that the show got canceled, and how really, that 'battle' is only as over as Serenity Valley. So here now I'm telling you all of this, because I find it poetic, because he's a really good friend, and while I have lots of really good friends here and in Seattle, I don't have any like him, so it sucks that it got cancled. That said, it's only really as over as Serentiy Valley.
