School Closure = Ruined Happiness. RIP Briercrest School

I went back to Briercrest School last night with my friend. . . it closed this summer, but I still visit it from time to time.
We were on our way back from the city and decided to stop by and just BE there; we just needed to be close to it again. It was the most heart breaking thing, seeing the empty black halls as we pressed our faces up against the windows only to see the school completely wiped out. I cannot even express the panick and longing I felt, and I just couldn't control myself then. 11 years of my life spent in that building, and it was my home away from home.
All we could do was cry and pull at the doors desperately trying to open the doors and get inside, even though we knew it was locked. We just needed to be inside.

I could, and can, remember every detail of the school.. every room, where every single object in every single room was, how many steps it took to walk down the hallway and where every single turn in the school led.
I would give anything to have it open again-- it doesn't even have to be a school anymore, I just want it open. The taunting emptyness and bleakness of the school is complete torture and I wish that the building could be open once more... as a community center, or ANYTHING! JUST LET ME IN THE BUILDING THAT IS MY LIFE, AND MAKES ME HAPPY..

I'm tired of crying myself to sleep at night and having people in my face all the time that don't care what all of us going through and don't understand how much it really hurts. I'm tired of my new school and all the students there who mock Briercrest and Briercrest school and don't give a damn about my feelings or how much it hurts me.

School closures is NOT in our best interests and to all those stuck up people in the government and school boards that closed our school-- I really hope that one day you realize just how many people you have hurt, and realize that all that money that you pocket at the end of the day that benefits you so, is dirty money. Selfish acts in order to get yourself a big, fat paycheck can lead you to a happy life for only so long...
