Saying good bye is the hardest part

So I am sitting in my room right now. It is an absolute wreck and I am slowly but surely trying to pack away my things. A half hour from now, I will be saying goodbye to a dear friend. I have been doing this for the past few days, but this is the first person out of my closest friends to leave. As I have been trying to prepare myself for this, I started thinking about what things have I been getting excited about recently. I realized that for the past few weeks, I have been living in the future, instead of the here and now. I have been so incredibly excited about going home and seeing all my friends who are coming in from school or who are in charlotte. But I have been lacking when it comes to my friends here. I have been so looking forward to going home, that I haven't been appreciating my friends here and the little amount of time I have left with them. I haven't spent the amount of time with them that I wanted to, partly because of exams and packing. But still, I should have made the time, and I didn't.

I will try my hardest to say goodbye, and remind myself that in a few short months we'll be together again. And hopefully, nothing will have changed too drastically in those relationships.
