well, folks..it´s about that time. my semester abroad in salamanca is coming to an end. funny how at wake i can never wait for school to end, but now i just wish it would last forever. this has by far been the best semester of my life. i´m getting more and more sad when i think that i have less than 2 days left. i mean, i´ve just spent 4 months of my life in a place that i have to leave behind. sure i can come back and visit, but it will never be the same.

the partying for the last few days has been great. i spent my last wednesday and thursday night with my DJ friends at their respective discos. i said goodbye to them and my favorite bouncers and bartenders. i know it seems silly to be attached to people like this, but it happened.

i don´t wanna leave my familia. i´ve absolutely loved having such a family situation. eating meals all together, having bickering brothers, having someone take care of me when i´m sick, having someone tell me my room is too messy, etc. it´s weird, the other two students are already gone. ya know, "and then there was one..."

last night we had a big christmas feast with the "german girls," two of the best friends i´ve made since being here. it was such a good time, minus the fact that we almost burned their apartment down. let´s just say we were too busying drinking, chatting, and eating to notice the center piece (candles, clementines, and tinsel) becoming quite a large fire.

tonight it´s our final dinner with the whole group. then a big night of partying.

bah, maybe i need to be less of a wuss...

"How lucky I am to have friends that it is so hard to say goodbye to."
"I always thought I’d look back on the crying and laugh - instead I look back on the laughter and cry."
"So many faces in and out of my life; some will last, some will just now and then. Life is a series of hellos and good-byes. I’m afraid it’s time for goodbye again."
