sam


thirteen years :o

i sat with my childhood best friend in her bedroom today, and she pulled out notes from almost a decade ago, and we sat and talked. a sense of nostalgia washed over me as i walked in, a space so familiar, yet so distant in the past couple of years. i remember building forts with blankets, having sleepovers, birthday parties.. we got coffee, and caught up, and went to the playground, and had to give way to the kids who dominated the playground. we didn't belong there anymore. 

i think we have each found our place in seattle and chicago, learnt more about ourselves a little more, realised that we don't know everything, realised that we do know some things. we are different. but also the same.
