old friends

i love social networking

yesterday, i had a friend request on a social networking site of someone i haven't seen since i was about eight. i remember her to an extent. i remember going to her house with a bunch of other friends for her birthday and picking up bars of chocolate with our mouths... anyway. the main thing i remember is her bright blonde hair. when i took a look at this friend request i suddenly realise that yes, this is that little girl i used to spend my primary school days with. something inside me was completely amazed that a) she had taken the time to find me and b) she had grown up. in my mind she was forever going to remain the pretty but strange eight year old who had a wonderful sense of humor and big blonde hair. yet now i have evidence that the same girl has infact become a teenager. she has grown up. now i'm beginning to think i am too. and that scares me more than anything else.

#EDIT: sorry for the previous mistakes on this post (which have now been edited out) i was trying to be clever.
