Endings

It's a hard realization when you see a chapter in your life closing. I feel as though the significant lives approaching in the next few weeks solidify the end of this part of the story.

I have lived in Ely Hall for two years now - and it has seen the cultivation of friendships with very significant friends in my life. Molly, Lucy, Anna, Christine, Katherine, Liz, Katy, Kelley. I have learned a lot about myself in being a RA through the last two years. I am, in all honesty, ready to move - but it's a hard realization to know I am missing another year of rowdy good time.

I am going to Haiti in 20 days. 20 days. I don't even know how to begin to comprehend that. The shots in my arms and $700 out of my bank account should begin to solidify it in my mind...

And the realization that the day after tomorrow is the last few hours I will spend with my dad in Kansas City is a really difficult thing to swallow.

Oh life. Off to sleep.
