I hate goodbyes. I hate them. I despise them.
I've grown up with these friends and saying goodbye to them yesterday was just downright torture. I have friends headed to Arkansas, Arizona and other places in Missouri.
I tried to hold it all in last night, and I did ok until the drive home. It was raining and of course I had on some sad music and I lost it.
I woke up this morning and I was in a total funk. 100% ican'tbelievemyfriendslefttodayidon'twanttotalktoanyone funk. I sat in bed and sulked. Yes. I am a child.
These are the friends I've grown up with, fought with, laughed with, cried with, and lived life with. I know that people grow up and time marches on. It's part of life, but it doesn't make it any easier.
annnnnd, if I was leaving for college today, it'd be no big. But I have one more week at home and y'all can just pray that it passes by real quick like.
I decided that getting dressed up and going out would be good for me. Starbucks and some unnecessary shopping at Target with Kyle would do the trick.
And blasting music and singing at the top of our lungs was part of our afternoon.
Just getting a little bit of fresh air and getting my mind off it. Sometimes, that's all you need.
Oh and working a double tomorrow too.
Tell me what your funk busters are. I'd love to know.
I'm out.
I promise you that once you get to college and get settled in, you will be fine! I just started my sophomore year on Thursday and let me tell you... I BAWLED packing all of my stuff. It was awful. I just didn't want to leave. This happened last year too. It was just horrible. But once you get there, you will be fine. I won't lie and tell you that you won't ever miss being home, because you will, but it will get better. I am a person who likes being alone and at home sometimes and I was fine. And the friends? You'll see them on breaks and it will be like you never even left them. Hang in there girl and have the time of your life!
