Flute Camp pt. 2
in some ways, i am REALLY going to miss camp after this year.
Maya and Laurel both graduated and it was their last year. (Laurel wants to come back as a counselor though, so there is still a chance) How can i describe what it is like to watch a friend grow up, both from a friend’s standpoint and as a mentor. i’ve been in band with Maya for 2 years? plus all the times i visited. we’ve become such good friends and she’s been at flute camp so long it’s going to be weird not seeing her around. thinking about it almost makes me cry again (i already cried way to many times today…sigh….). <3
yet even after the sadness passes, there is still so much to look forward to. the faculty is of course all coming back, counselors most likely, and there are a lot of students who plan on coming back. keeping in touch via Facebook will help ease the pain. and there is always a way to see the close friends who live near the Bay.
All these years passing, the thing that always gets me is the strength of the friendships made at camp. friendships are made, and some wear thin. but whenever i see people reuniting and keeping in touch, i know we did our job well.
i’m going to sleep now, it’s going to take a long time for me to sort out all these things pent up inside.
