- I know the best people in this world and I never properly thank them for it. 
- being scared to do something makes the action worth the fear and apprehension 
- I laugh too much when I meet new people. 
- I over-analyze things. (self-criticism hehe) 
- I really love life. 
Simple things I've never taken note before, but yeah - you learn these things at random. and concerning the letter and the response ... well, I'm MUCH more happier now. No more random crying doing poem recitals HAHA. mpr, you didn't make me write that letter - i really wanted to write that letter a) to make amends b) because i didn't like how things were between us c) i missed him. i really did, and i hated the fact i was messed up over our friendship d) it's now or ever, right? i figured i couldn't lose much by telling him what I felt (besides not wanting to ever see him again for fear of public humiliation looool), and that I'd finally let go of the chains he had around my heart. i'm just the type of person who doesn't forget people or events easily. though its evident from his response this wasn't a big deal or anything, it just feels so GOOD to have the air clear around us. i'm not expecting us to be tight as we were before, but thats okay - as long as I know he's happy, then I'll be happy for him. 
so after a year of writing about him and our friendship, 
I can happily say this is the end of this issue :)
