This is going to be the most lame journal I have ever submitted, but I miss Leonard Nimoy. Leonard Nimoy was an actor and a photographer who I have looked up to since I was a young child. I've always loved Star Trek, and Mr. Spock was who I wanted to be when I grew up. I miss his unwavering positivism. His influence has pushed me to educate myself from topics like astrophysics to topics like social justice.

A man I actually miss is Christopher Hitchens. He was a prominent speaker in religion, mainly his position of Atheism. He is what inspired me to be rational, and open to suggestions. But he also taught me that you never take anyone's word and you always research; as well as research the research. Sadly he died towards the end of 2011. A quote that I will always live by is “If someone tells me that I’ve hurt their feelings, I’m still waiting to hear what their point is.”

I miss my Grandad, he was such an inspiration to me. Even though he is in a better place he is my inspiration. He always knew what to tell me. he always fought through life. He knew he couldn't walk well but that didn't stop him for achieving what he wanted.

Someone that I miss on a daily basis is my grandma. She was the one who kept the entire family together as a whole. For her, we all would get together no matter where or why but we would do it just for her. If she taught me anything it was that family is one of the most important things in life and it's important to be surrounded by them at all times.

One person that I really miss is my grandpa. Six months ago he had a serious stroke, and while he is still here, his brain was greatly damaged, altering his ability to think, speak, and move. I really miss being able to have little conversations with him and gain wisdom from what he had to say. Over the past seventeen years, he has demonstrated how to live a meaningful life and helped in making me a better man. I will always be thankful for the times I got to spend with him.

I really miss my nana and papa Welch my great grandparents. Nana died 11 years ago from a stroke. My papa gave up because she died and he stopped taking his medication and he slowly died three years later. They were really knowledgeable in alot of thing and they taught me so many useful thing that I still use today.

Someone I miss is my dad I haven't seen my real dad in 7 years. Its hard sometimes, like I want it be able to talk to him and stuff I just don't know what I would say. I don't think it would be like talking to someone I see everyday I don't know him and he doesn't know me. I feel like it would be really awkward but i want a relationship with my real dad.

I miss my uncle Vince with all my heart. He died last year and I had not spoke with him for a year prior to his death due ideological conflicts. They have impacted my life making me realize not to hold grudges. I know he had nothing but love for me in his heart I know now that i should not have ever held a grudge over simple disputes. I should hold nothing but love for the people around Mel because you never know when its someones time to leave earth.

A person that I miss is, my old best friend, Caleb from California. I moved from California to Texas when i started elementary school, but that meant loosing my best friend from home. We use to play everyday and hang every second we could, and when we moved I lost all contact with him.

Someone I miss is one of my best friends and one of the greatest role models in my life. Although she is still around and I probably see her more often than the people others miss, it is hard to find time in her schedule to see her. She has impacted my life by being four years older than me so she is still close to my age to be best friends but also older enough to be knowledgeable about what she tells me and helps me with.

I miss my brother. My brother just began his job in Chicago where he is traveling 46 weeks out of the year. I miss having him around the house because he is always joking around and a joy to be with. He also stand as a competitor pushing me to do my best and work harder. He has greatly impacted my life since I have adapted my life to compare to his so that I can beat him in the activities we both participate in.

I miss my formal best friend. At the time we became best friends we were going through similar situations so that made us super close from the beginning. She was the one person I told absolutely everything to and somehow she always knew how to respond. She impacted my life because she helped me grow up. She was two years older than me so she was more mature and had a lot of wisdom for someone her age. Unfortunately we are no longer friends so she also impacted my life by teaching me that not everyone is meant to stay in your life for the long run.

Someone I miss is my cousin Jennifer. She used to live here in Sherman but she now lives in Florida and is in college. Even though she was a few years older than me we are still good friends and we could always talk about anything with each other. She is one of the few people in my life who I can actually trust and I miss talking to her a lot.

I miss my great grandmother the most. She passed away almost two years ago but it still feels like yesterday when it happened. She was the sweetest and the meanest lady you'll ever meet. She impacted my life because she always was strong during hard times. I've never seen my grandmother shed one tear before. She was 88 years old when she passed and no matter what's going on there's not a day where I don't think about her. She was the heart and soul of my family and she will be truly missed.

I miss my sister lauren she lives in new bruanfels which is 6 hours away and I only see her about once a year. I've looked up to her since I was a child and I still do. When we do see each other it's hard to separate again cause I know it won't be until the following year I can see her.

I person I miss is my older brother, because he lives in Florida it's hard to go see him. And I never talk to him because he is busy working. My brother is the biggest influence in my life, he was the one of the people that made love basketball.

Someone I really miss is my grandfather. I miss him because he was like a father to me since i grew up away from my father. He thought me lots of things & when he died my whole life changed. I cry when i remember how he used to play with me. People say he was an angry man even with his sons & other grandsons but to me he was the sweetest.

The one person I miss is my buddy Christopher. He moved to San Antonio in the summer going into senior year. Why I miss him is because everyday last year he would always make me laugh all day. Since he is not here no more I haven't had a good laugh in a while which I miss. Even though he's not here he would always be a good friend of mine.

The person that I miss the most is my aunt Deanna she died in February 2008 when I was nine years old. She left behind her 4 children and her whole family. My grandpa and dad was very sad because they lost my grandmother about seven years earlier. When she was alive we were all close because almost everyday I got to spend time with her until the end. I miss her laugh, beauty, personality, craziness, and her. She impacted my life by teaching me to enjoy life while you can and never take anything for granted. I will always remember and love her forever.

The person that I miss is my grandfather. He was a big father figure to me and he showed me a lot about what I now hold as right or wrong. I haven't had him in my life for a long time now and I really miss him but I know that he did everything he could to teach me as much as he could.

Someone I truly miss would have to be my cousin who lives in Delaware. I miss being with him all the time and just joking around about stuff. We grew up together as kids and i haven't seen him in about 8 years. He made in impact in my life because it showed me that you must enjoy the time you have with people and treat them well because you never know when your last day with them might be.

Someone I miss is my best friends from the school I moved from freshman year. I miss them because I grew up with them and I went from seeing them everyday to slowly losing contact with them as we grew up at separate schools.

I miss my cousin so much. She's a couple of years older than me so we're really close. She's in the army and recently been station to Germany and I talk to her everyday but it's not the same face to face. Hopefully she can make it to my graduation because I really miss her.

One person I miss greatly is my best friend. I haven't seen him in a few months and even though we talk everyday I still miss being around him. He is always there when I need him and even though we may argue he's still my favorite person.

Some people I will miss are a huge portion of my family who lives in Chicago, Illinois. I recently visited them during Winter break and had the time of my life while I was there. I won't have to miss them too long because I plan on going back during Summer break.
