Is that whole 'friends forever' thing really possible?
Life has a way of separating people, and, unless everyone takes time away from their lives, we're all too lazy to keep in touch. I mean, if you are truly and utterly someone's friend, then you'll always be friends. But in the same way? Maybe not. It's an interesting thought, really. Wouldn't you change as you got older?
I'm not implying anything here by saying that, but I'm just thinking about the future.
I saw Ali and Eric and Nitish today, at Eric's party. We had fun, doing crazy stuff and nominating a gourd the de shadow government candidate for president.
But it all makes me wonder - what will happen when the true parting of the ways comes? Not just when we go to highschool, because some of us will still be together and we'll be able to meet pretty easily - but when we go to college. Ali wants to go to Louisiana State, me to Stanford or Berkeley or somewhere like that, and who knows where everyone else is going to go. It's going to hurt, and it already sucks, because I go to a different school now.
Errrgh.
Other than Eric's party, we did go back and visit Master Kim today.
Except Master Kim wasn't there - only Master Rhee was. There were lots of black belts there too, because it must have been black belt class. Lindsay and Trevor were there, as well as those two sisters (one of which I kicked in the face during sparring, consequently making her cry). The sisters weren't black yet, just junior black. Master Rhee did a lot of talking with my mom, and talked to me about teaching the lower belts, now that I'm black belt. Woopee.
Speaking of lower belts, there was a freaking no belt in class this morning, and he was freaking learning all of the motions and kicks that we didn't learn until red belt, at least. And this kid was like five years old, and responded only to commands spoken in Korean.
It seems kind of unfair, that we have to sit around and wait for him to do motions that he isn't even supposed to do, when we could just zip through them.
Oh, and Master Lee was teaching, and he always puts me in a bad mood.
Pete hasn't taught us since we became black belts. Tuesday he was late, Saturday he didn't show at all. The rest of the week we didn't come.
I'm so tired.
