Parting is Such Sweet Sorrow

I'm sorry for the long silence, these past few days have been kind of hard to process. I finished my exams (I think I did very well on my literature exam), and only have one more person to say goodbye to. Of course, that doesn't mean at all that I'm ready to leave; I'm not.

Last night we went to another soccer game and it was great; we won. And my friend Sam finally got back from Scotland, so that was awesome (but he got his bike stolen! I swear he probably thinks it's me that's causing all this, because he lost his wallet and his driver's license while I was visiting him in Scotland...)

Alex left this morning... :(

My train leaves Angers in 2 hours and 4 minutes. Sigh.

Here's some pictures of some people that I've come to love.


Here's Brittany (as I'm sure you know by now). I could not have asked for a better friend to be in Angers with me, and to travel with (an international flight all by myself would be scary [and boring!]). She's my sister, both in my sorority and in my heart, and I'm super blessed to have spent so much time with her.


Here's Alex. I don't even know where to begin. A wonderful roommate, my partner in crime, and my shoulder to cry on when things got rough (although I'm not sure if that's by choice or just because we shared a room and she felt obligated...hahaha). The craziest adventures I've had on this continent have been with her, and it will be lame not seeing her every day.


Here's boy Alex, Mat, and Brian. These are all boys from Kansas University that basically kept me in stitches with their humor and quirks (and trust me, they're quirky boys). Definitely people I'll keep in touch with...I'd even go as far as to say that they're roadtrip worthy.


Here's Tori. She's a friend I made WAYYY too late into this trip, but one that I plan on staying in touch with for a long time.


I'm not ready to leave. But I can't wait to get home.
