I have noticed that the people who stayed in the city and are going to the state university back home are mostly keeping the same groups of friends while people who moved out-of-state are meeting more people, so I'm glad I got away. I do miss high school, though. Just a little. My friendship circle goes through pretty much the same process as yours and Jen's. I keep in touch with those whom I'm closest with, and then for the rest, I just keep making new friends and expanding my circle of acquaintances. I don't know if I would be able to stick with the exact same few people for forever because some people get annoying after you're with them for too long, and it's always good to meet new people and see things from a fresh perspective.

I agree with your feelings about high school. I didn't care for many of the people I went to school with. They were proud of 800s on the SATs, if that gives you any idea! Where I come from, all people do is get pregnant and do nothing with there lives. I'm so glad to be out of there! Thanks for the comment on my blog!!

It's just a question of how successful we are all going to be. That said, I still wonder how some of my peers finished high school and emerged with a diploma in hand!

I guess it makes it convenient to keep in touch if anything. And it also means I never really notice if they've changed since high school 'cause it's still a gradual process -- I see them semi-often so nothing is confronting. But still, Life Skills are attractive. I find that when it comes to friends, I have a steady few who I've been friends with for a long time, and then close friends who go through the same organic process you mentioned.
