Lonely

So it just hit me. The tears won't seem to stop. My sister is away. She has gone to college, and is no longer the my best friend living across the hall. It hurts. It is a loss, and I can't believe this time has come. Our lives have been spent almost completely together, and it sucks to be split, even if the reason is ultimately good. But I can't even express how much I'm going to miss her! Senior year means nothing without my sister and great friend. I love her. I cannot believe now how many times we fought over nothing. Right now I just want to hug her. I will see her tomorrow, but for the sake of this year I cry.

And just to make matters worse, none of my friends can understand. They all say "I'm happy for her," but they can't see how much this will hurt. I'm sure she'll miss here too, but I know she will love college and it will be a good experience. I am glad for her. It will be good... but I want her here...
