The times- they are a changin

It's hard to accept change. It always has been, and it always will be. As we know, college is a time to not only learn about things that we enjoy, but meet new people and figure out who we are. Growing up comes inevitable with that. The hard part is bridging the old self with the new one. You make all these new friends and you grow with them; and all those people that spent 10+ years growing up with you now seem like strangers. Not only have we lost touch and grown apart, but new people have come in and occupy our time. Friends that we use to just sit around with on a lazy evening with now share their company with their significant other. Times change, and so do we. But once we escape the fairy tale of our ball, once the clock strikes midnight and we turn back in to the pumpkin- who is going to be there to pick up the pieces? I will fully admit that in big things, I don't deal well with change. I seek comfort in consistency and support in the people around me. So what do I do when those people aren't around for me to lean on? What do I do when a boy comes in to be their support instead of me? I hate summer because in my world, everything and everyone is changing. I feel disconnected and alone and wish things would just pick up where they left off what seems like so long ago. But I guess that's just wishful thinking. I miss those days of late night Perkins dates, or marathons of sex and the city. I miss music videos and hml. But maybe it wasn't real in the first place. I guess that's the hardest part to accept.
