Saying Goodbye

On Friday my stuff will be gone. Some of the funniest, smartest and sweetest people I know will be gone. We are all leaving this place to start somewhere else and we all have something to look forward to, but that does not mean it won't hurt to say goodbye.

I hate saying goodbye. I prefer to say "see you soon" because that mean that I'll see you again. But there are a lot of really good people here that I probably never see again unless it is by coincidence or a reunion of some sort. For the past year I have leaned so many new things from these people. I have learned to open up about my opinions, to be proud of where I'm from and who I am. I don't feel that I need to hide what has happened in the past and that whatever did happened doesn't have to follow me now. 

It has been a wonderful 8 months and I am so happy to have gotten to know all those people from all kinds of different backgrounds. Of course there are some people that I'll keep in touch with and that I'll see them again in the near future. I know that I have made some really good friends here and I have met people that I have more in common with that I have with many of my older friends. I have gained some good ones and lost some that I can do well without.

There will probably be many tears on Thursday at the "goodbye barbecue" but at the same time I know that it will be a lot of fun as well! Can't wait to start fresh!

Until Next Time, Love CJ
