Leavin' on a Jet Plane

Well, the end is here.
Tomorrow I leave Ochil Tower School, and Scotland. Esther and I will fly from Glasgow at 20 past 4. If you don't hear from me in the next couple of days from Germany then I'll be in touch after I arrive home on the 9th.

See you all soon!!

It's Hard to Believe

Well, it is Monday morning here, and it has just hit me that this is my very last week here........wow. I know that you are all ready to have me home, and I hope you know how ready I am to be there. I have been waiting for this moment and wanting it for SUCH a long time. But I'm also realizing how much I'm leaving behind. This year has meant a lot. I have learned so much, and a lot of it about myself. I have made a lot of wonderful relationships, some of which I know will continue but many others which won't last past this year. That is just the reality. These people have meant so much to me this year and they have been so important in who I have become over the year but I know that the reality is that they will just stay in this year, our relationship won't continue.

This has been a really special year and Scotland and Ochil Tower are so unique, I know I won't find anything like it anywhere else. I wouldn't want to do this for another year and I am very excited about my future plans but it is hard to leave all of this behind.

At the very beginning of this term I warned my friends here that in the last couple weeks I would start to get sentimental and teary eyed. I've been pretty good until now but I have to admit, this morning I had to break out the tissues.

I was changing some things in my settings and I'm wondering if you all can leave comments now. If you weren't able to leave comments before, try it now.
