Array ( [sid] => 36385 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => School Daze [time] => 2004-02-26 01:02:08 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Remember those days back when we were but knee-high? I do. When enthusiasm was greatly shown toward going to school. Scraped knees and cuts were easily healed with nothing more than a simple kiss. When your favorite time of the day was nap time, your second favorite; milk break and of course recess. When lunch was actually healthy; when sharing was a common skill. Children laughed as the wind blew in their faces, swinging what seemed so high into the sky. That was years ago. Now we stand tall as the adults of tomorrow. Enthusiasm for education is now a double edge sword. Both a treat to still be educated but also to be endured. We have the strength to face what ever comes our way because we have each other. You taught us that. You were there over the years watching us grow. Friendships formed. We grew watching each other change. Now as our final days draw near the swings lie dormant only carried on laughter long past riding on the back of a gentle spring breeze. You think this is the end but we are bonded forever soul-bound by the memories we shared good and bad alike. Those, which gave us strength and drew out heartbreak. But we overcame it all. Now begins the next chapter and I know we'll make it far because we have each other. No matter how far apart we are one and it is that fact that gives me the courageousness to carry on. The pride to keep my head up high and the ability to succeed at everything. I grew with you people, now I am you.

Remember those days back when we were but knee-high? I do. When enthusiasm was greatly shown toward going to school. Scraped knees and cuts were easily healed with nothing more than a simple kiss.
