To be honest, I'm not really a very emotional guy. Most things don't really bother me as such, and I've always got the view that what happens happens, and you can't change it, so don't let it get to you.
But today was different.
Seeing people for the very last time that you've known for 5 years isn't a great experience; it's genuinely upsetting. You go to say goodbye to someone you remember upsetting at some point, and it really hurts, it's weird, you suddenly want to make it right, but there's no time to.
The cool thing was the whole 'as one' feel. I've never seen so much love and friendship in one place. Boys and girls both in tears, some covered with egg and flour (you know how last days go), some just hugging people and refusing to let go. My torso is cloaked in goodbye messages, as is everyone's shirts, and everyone is together.
I know it all sounds a bit soppy realy, and it probably is, but it was just so unexpected. Even though I'll probably see half of my mates in the exams next week, it still felt awful saying goodbye to them.
There isn't really much else to say. Just thought I'd share the experience with you all. Heh, I can feel the tears welling as I write this, I kid you not.

Yeah, unfortunately, whilst it's nice to leave school, GCSEs for the next month :-(
At least they don't mean anything :-p

Pffft. I finished sixth form for good last week and I wasn't bothered at all.

Haha, this is quite amusing. Our last day had none of this soppy stuff, basically all that happened was there was a massive egg/flour/milk/beans/dogfood/banana/salmon/shavingfoam fight outside and the whole year was sent home early because we smelt so bad afterards.
I had an exam though, so I had to revise while all of this was going on. Fun fun fun.
