May. 11th, 2008 01:45 pmI've figured out what it is I constantly feel I'm missing. I've known that there's a void at school, but until today I didn't realise what it was.
Neil is more interested in Erek and Katie and Thuyet. Kaly and Lindsay and Chad and Andrew and Tom and Greg all do their own thing - there's a unit there, I suppose, but it isn't a bonded one, and nobody notices or mourns the lack of any of its members. Campus ministry continues to do bloody stupid things no matter what anyone says, least of all me. It's not that my presence is unwanted, it's that it isn't integral - nobody feels my absence, or if they do they don't bother showing it, which is functionally the same thing.
Matty was deeply concerned about when I came home. Emily invited me to events even when I had no bloody hope of making them. Miranda goes out of her way to IM me almost every day. Bear called me to see how I was the other day. Even people who were never integral to my life like Joe or Trevor find out how I am. It's not the city, it's not the colour of the sky, it's not the school, it's just that if I fell off of God's earth tomorrow, they'd know it in Boston well before the people of Providence found out.
