The four hour car ride down here was excruciating. I sat in the back seat of my mom's car with two duffle bags, my purse, my laptop, my mini-fridge (which is SO not very mini), my suitcase, and various other bags that wouldn't fit in the trunk. I'm astounded at my dad's packing skills to be honest. It was incredible. Anyway, I ended up watching I Love You, Man on my laptop on the way down. I thought that since it's a funny movie, it would distract me from the sad tickling sensation behind my eyes. I'm proud of myself, I only cried a little bit, though last night I was practically bawling.

I'm not too sad about leaving, but I guess I'm a little upset about all of the "maybes" and "might have beens" that I left behind. And now I have to start over. I hate when a story ends like that. Just when everything starts getting good, there is the end of the book. And you have to wait ages for the next book to come. And yes, I know that my story hasn't technically ended, but I feel like this week has been the big season finale and I have to wait for the new season to start.

I also want to thank all of my friends out there for all of the support you've all given me. I was texting with D earlier and I confessed to him that I wasn't sure if I was ready or not. He was so very, very sweet. All of my friends have been like this. And I know that we're all starting new chapters (or new seasons) in our lives. I think it's absolutely great that we're all so connected. So here's a shout out to everyone! I LOVE YOU ALL <3 <3 <3 And we are definitely going to be getting together homecoming weekend, even if I have to hitchhike home :)

I'm finishing this post and thinking about new beginnings. I know things have to end. So here I go off to big bad college. This is the end of one season, let's see what new twists and turns the next one takes.
