hi. i went to my brother's graduation tonight. . .it made me reaaaaaally sentimental. their school is so united compared to just about any other school in the US it seems. . .everyone knows, and is friends with, everyone else. one of their schoolmates and "brothers" as they put it died a week ago today. may 26. . .they sang "one sweet day" for him. it was the sweetest thing i've ever seen. you haven't seen sweet until you see 20 high school & above age males singing a song by mariah carey & boyz 2 men. . . .i almost cried. but i didn't. but going there made me feel all sentimental and nostalgic and wistful. . .that's the one reason i'd like to have stayed at that school. you feel like you're really unique & it was all worth it when you stand in front of everyone and say your speech and **graduate**. but i'm not sure it's worth all the other shit to have that 5 hours of happiness. sigh. . . . .
one of the MCs was this guy whom i've liked for a LONG time. too long. so long i will not even say how long. it made me sad to look at him and know that i like him, and i have for so long, and i will never even be friends with him. . .he will just be an acquaintance. actually, i got that feeling earlier too when i saw this other guy i like at school.
in other news, today was good. good good good. :) at lunch i hung out with my preppier friends. it was cool cuz i actually felt somewhat loved hehe. no not really, but we were all sitting in a circle so i didn't have to wander around trying to find someone to hang out w/. and it was just fun and all my classes were good except math. we had a group test and my group got 85% and i felt bad and i dunno it wasn't cool. that's about it.
this is the song that the guys sang...
one sweet day - mariah carey & boyz 2 men
Sorry I never told you
All I wanted to say
Now it's too late to hold you
'Cause you've flown away
So far away
Never had I imagined
Living without your smile
Feeling and knowing you hear me
It keeps me alive
Alive
Chorus:
And I know you're shining down on me from heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way
And I know eventually we'll be together
One sweet day
Darling I never showed you
Assumed you'd always be there
Took your presence for granted
But I always cared
And I miss the love we shared
Chorus
Although the sun will shine the same
&127; I'll always look to a brighter day
Lord I know when I lay me down to sleep
You will always listen as I pray
Chorus(x2)
Sorry I never told you
