SHOULD I REALLY BE DOING THIS?!?!?!? My life was great here and although things may not of always been picture perfect I can't help love this place I learned to call home... So here is a list of things that have changed and or I have learned in about the past month:

I don't know there are some a few of the things that I can think off the top of my head.. Yes I have cried and know that next week will I probably be a bigger emotional reck than I have ever been or would ever want to be.. I am going to miss this place and the wonderful people who I can friends and family. And although its only an hour North I still won't be here everyday. So now before I start to get teary eyed again I am going to end this post... (and for my sister who don't like to read such long post)..... Oh gosh I don't even know what else to say!!! :)
