Despite the vaguely sinister title of this blog, I assure you, it's not. Those of you who are familiar as familiar with Final Fantasy IX as I am (which may not actually be that many of you, though I hope I'm wrong) will know it's the title of one of the best music tracks in Final Fantasy history. If you aren't quite so familiar with the FF games, now you know a little bit more.
I know I whine a lot when my friends leave. It's a flaw of mine. I miss those who aren't with me, and probably make the people who ARE with me feel bad. But really, we're not alone. We're connected by technology now. I've texted my friends multiple times since they left on their band trip. This is not coming out nearly how I want it to.
What I'm trying to say is that it doesn't matter how far apart you are from someone, or whether or not you have technology to keep you in touch. As long as you have memories of someone, they haven't truly left you. I'm not just talking about someone dying, either. If you're missing someone, just think of a laugh you shared, or an inside joke, or whatever. You'll find that they're a lot closer than you think. You'll find that your friends and family never really leave you.
I apologize if I'm coming off as overly sentimental. I'm listening to gorgeous versions of various Final Fantasy pieces, and they may be affecting my emotions. Also, I'm tired. And thirsty. Who doesn't put a drinking fountain in a dorm? But I digress.
Don't feel too sad if you're separated from someone you love. Chances are that you're on their mind, too.
