"Someday we'll talk again"
Listen to me. She's grown up.
I really, really don't think so. If she has, then she could've shown it. She can't even say hello to me. That's not growing up.
I hate to think of this as something to teach me to lose things. This... or anything else. I don't want it to be "lost." But this one may be out of my control.
I want to crawl into a hole and pretend that this week just didn't exist.
And that the upcoming one won't exist.
And then have it just be over. Fast. Painless. (Relatively.)

Welcome to Reality. Fasten your seatbelt.
Promise me you'll try to talk to her.
No. I can't.
I'll go to say goodbye and wish her luck, but sitting her down and telling her "everything" isn't worth it to either of us.
There comes a point where I have to shut myself down, too.
F*ck reality. This is getting absurd. I hate you, karma.

"Sometimes people leave you
Half way through the wood
Do not let it grieve you
No one leaves for good"

Emcee, people can't shut down like that UNLESS they have something TO shut down. Talk to her. You'll regret not doing it.
What don't I have to shut down? I've been trying for months. Now it's time to give up.
There's nothing else to say after going about it for so long. "Let's be friends again?" There's nothing left.

I was talking about her.
I'm going now, and I want you to do it.
So was I. You know that in the other situation I don't think that there's nothing left.
I tried for months. It backfired.
Or, do you mean there's nothing for HER to shut down? It's obvious that she has, in one way or another.
I don't really care what you want, but thank you. I still hold that there's nothing of relevance to be said.
I can't let this crap get in the way of my schoolwork. Sh*t. *pretends to read*
ETA -- thanks, theatrebabe.
Emcee, I don't really understand all the parts of this argument between you and your friend, but you should DEFINITELY at least say good-bye and wish her well, or else you'll regret it forever. I'm not sure if we've established this or not, but do it. The hardest things in life are usually the most important.
I have to miss both Tuesday and Wednesday for the holidays, which I'm not excited about. However, it'll do be some good to not be able to do any work for two days.
That much I'm definitely going to do, simply because it's the right thing.
My high school closes for the High Holidays. I have no idea why my school now doesn't.
See, that's the trouble with living in the South. They don't close school for a few Jewish people. Once a school district near me had makeup days on Saturday!
You would think, living in NEW YORK CITY, that they would realize there are a lot of Jews. Geez. That would make me angry. It's RIDICULOUS to have exams on a religious holiday. I would complain. It won't matter this year, but maybe for next eyar and the next...
A lot of big universities don't have class - this particular school doesn't have a lot of non-class days as it is - a lot of schools have random breaks every now and then. All we have is winter and spring break.
My prof. who's giving the exam did think it out, though. He said that by having the exam that day, and then offering two possible make-up dates, it's a bit better than having a lecture that people will miss and can't make up. It's not ideal, but he didn't do it haphazardly.
I guess that's true. But it sucks that you have SO much to do those two days.
This must be some sort of phase. Soon everything in your life will be going wonderfully and...and...and Adam and Raul will both propose to you! Yup, that's it.
They'd better.
At the same time.
But then you'd have to reject one to his face! What would you do? :-P
No no no.
I'll take both.
At the same time.
No rejection, and all's well!
Ahhhh, I see. I like your way of problem-solving.
But who would you choose if someone held a gun to your head and made you choose one?

I'd choose the gun.
I think I prefer your original choice. Guns are baaaaad.

Well, Atrias is trying to make me choose!
Maybe they're into polygamy. In the spirit of masochism, I can ask.
