I'll see you around, Anuar

Man...
Another school year gone by, and another couple of students I may never see again have moved on. This year is a little different.
My first year working at Mayfair was rad. I picked up the coolest little side kick named John. He had the stature of a 7 year old and the voice of a lion. He had all the cutest girls on campus looking for him and greeting him at all times and he was just tons of fun to work with. He left, and it was a drag, but it was only one year we had together.
Last year, I lost Alex and that was a drag too. I loved working with him, having to wake him up each and every morning as he was nodding off, and giving him a hard time about being such a neat freak. He was awesome and I'll miss him for sure.
This year? Jesus...
This is my buddy Anuar, going three years strong. Like every person, special needs or not, he had his days of being a real hassle and boy he knew how to work it. This guy, man... this guy. This was like my freakin BUDDY!!
lol.. I'm like really getting bummed out about not getting to work with this guy anymore. He helped me out so much and I swear, I'd hang out with this kid if I could in my free time because he's just one of those kids that sucks you right in and you just have to love him. He's a total goofball and fellow poke'mon trainer. He's a guys guy... eatin' hot chile peppers to impress the other guys at the table and always down to wrestle and get into all kinds of horseplay. He's Harry Potter, Zorro AND the incredible hulk.

He's Anuar... He's my pal.
I hope to see him around.
We had a hell of a lot of fun.
I love ya, dude. ;]

Back to work in the morning..
I've been having some interesting conversations with Richard and Chop. Man, I hate responsibility, especially when it comes to these kinds of things. I don't want to be that person... that man. This is such a heavy load, but no one else wants to carry it.
Maybe no one else is supposed to carry it.
Aye..

Today I met Fred in Kickboxing class.
Fred made me feel small which is telling of his size. lol
He gave me a great tip and if all goes well, this tip is going to spill over into everything.

You must commit.
You're gonna get hit; everyone does.
You just have to commit.
You have to keep fighting.

Blaine Bartel is coming around this weekend; it's going to be rad.

It's 2:41..
I just woke up..
I check my phone..
Jennifer called me twice and left me text messages.

lol.. Wow.
Jennifer...
Wow.

I'm looking through pictures... moving stuff over to my second drive to speed things up.

A lot has changed in 2 years time. A lot.
It's a bummer to see what my circle of close friends has dwindled to. It was once some kind of mob, but now it's a bunch of scattered cliques and small groups. People got married and people just went away. It's pretty crazy.
I haven't mentioned it here, but last year I may as well have lost two of my closest and most beloved friends. These are people that I loved tremendously, and in fact, I still do. It's just not the same when you don't see each other very much.
I saw Joey recently, who I've known and been friends with since 3rd grade, and it was pretty awkward.
Bobby got married apparently.

It's all just nuts.

I wonder what 2 more years might bring.


On a bright note, I got to see Joysette at work yesterday. She was on campus (someone told me she was in the front office so I booked it up there) and I had to squeeze the life out of her. I gave her like 4 hugs before she left. It was soooo awesome to see her. I think it made my week. ;]

Here's to getting organized this summer.
I'm going to SD for a couple of days on the 21st.
Last day of work for the regular school year is on Wednesday. ;] ;]
I should probably look for another job.
