Home

So school is over, and the summer has come. It's really always bittersweet when this time of year comes. I tend to forget how much this part of the school year hurts me, or rather, excites me. This year, especially, has been bitter-sweet due to many good-byes, but yet so many Hello's to new opportunities, and ideas, and hobbies. I have much I want to accomplish this year. This summer to be exact. I want to start running. I want watch lots of movies, and hang out with tons of people. I want to work. A lot, actually. Just get me some money, and I missed a lot of work last year I should make up for.

This time, last year, I was flying to London. A year ago, tomorrow, actually. I miss London, deeply, and one day I'll go back. I'm not sure exactly when, but I'm definitely going back. Although I miss it. I am so excited for this summer, and the future that awaits me. The horizon which I have set before me beams bright and sets anew.

Besides that, saying Goodbye this year was a lot harder than last year. Which is kind of unsettling seeing as this year; I said goodbye to strangers, and last year I said goodbye to my parents. The difference? I think the difference is that I know I was going to see my parents' again. I think I take that fact for granted far more than I should. I think that I'm going to see them more often than I see anyone else, both because I want to, and because I'm obligated too, but this year I had to say farewell to a bestie, and many goodbyes to all my house mates in Building 615.

I have come to adore all these people, and saying good-bye was really hard, but it was an ending to such a happy story, and such a great way to begin a new chapter among the novel I call "my life".

I'm happy I'm home with my parents now. The first night in my Queen size bed felt like I was floating on clouds in heaven. It was peaceful. I also missed my room, and dare I say; even my family.Although I'm back home and had to wish all my dearest friends good-bye...friends who have taught me more about life, and a myriad of other excellencies they shall never know that have changed my life forever--it's always great to find my way back to the place where it all begin, and I find it fitting that this is where I begin, again.
