sarah's last words to me tonight: 'have fun packing! don't get distracted!' and, surprise surprise, here i am.
over the past week, my last week in brampton for another year, i've tried to wrap up my entire summer and i didn't even come close. ask me to name 10 exciting things from the past four months and guarenteed i'd struggle with it. but ask me to name 10 people i spent those four months with whom i love and wouldn't trade our time together for anything in the world and you'd get well over 10 names back. guys, it seems i'm in the exact same position as i was this time last year: i know school is going to be great, and i'll have fun, and it's worth going. but it's just so hard leaving when i have it so good here. thank you all for being the best friends anyone could ever imagine...
my last few days here were ideal. i said goodbye to just about everyone i needed to, and as a result my eyes are throbbing from all the tears. thank you to everyone who came out tonight! like i said, i love that nothing has changed. and to all those who i haven't seen in the past few days and therefore didn't get a chance to say goodbye to, you know i love you anyways.
i'll post my new cell number and house number when i get it on monday or tuesday. until then, i'll still be reppin with the 905 number so call me! and everyone who promised they'd visit, you better stay true to your word!
thanksgiving is only 7 weeks away!
p.s. for those who don't know, the eagles are now my favourite band solely because of the song 'desperado'.
"and freedom, oh freedom, well that's just some people talkin'. your prison is walking through this world all alone...
won't you let somebody love you before it's too late"
