I haven't cried for almost a week about leaving here. It's a good feeling, I feel like I'm ready for the closure. I know that the people that really matter I will keep in close contact with after I return to the states. I just hope that the promises we've all made we can keep.
I love Aberystwyth, which I've stated multiple times. I stood on the bridge I cross everyday to classes and just stared down at the sea and the town. It's beautiful here, not just visually, but the people are beautiful, kind hearted, and amazing. I couldn't have asked for a better experience, a better place, or better people to call me friends here. If you EVER have the opportunity to study abroad, or even just to travel, you should. You learn far more about yourself when you throw yourself into a world of uncertainity. I remember a few days before I left to come here I was worried and stressed, but it all worked out just fine and I almost feel like an expert traveller now. Life experiences. Real life, things you can't learn from a text book, movies, magazines, novels, or even other people. It's been something for myself, something that I will only understand. I'm eternally grateful to have had this opportunity.
Home in 28 hours my friends and family. Be prepared. :) To those of you who aren't friends or family from home, I will see you all again.
