Time after time...

Well everyone... Let me tell ya, I can't believe it either... It has been 1 year (to the day) that I left Michigan. That's right... It's been 1 year. I left Michigan 1 year ago today. Drove down that little driveway on Ursuline St. and went to McDonald's for breakfast before going to Cedar Point to meet Danielle.

I seriously can't believe that a year has gone by already. It feels like just yesterday since I saw everyone. We were hangin' out at The Horn and chattin. I seriously can't believe it. It's been a fucking year.

I can remember it like it was yesterday.

I woke up in the morning and took a shower in the dark!!! HAHA!! The switch in the downstairs bathroom broke and Sara and I had to shower in the dark! WHAT a mess!! It was hilarious. We placed the last few things in my car and I said good - bye to my family. That was the HARDEST time of my life. I said my last good - byes (It well may be... :-( I'm seriously fighting back tears right now) and piled into my car. I didn't look in the rear view mirror because I knew that if I did, I'd go back. We drove down the driveway. My last memory of my parent's house before I left was my mom standing on the front porch watching my car go down the street, and me SOBBING in my car listening to "Defying Gravity" with Sara next to me telling me "YOU CAN DO THIS!!" as I tried to catch my breath.

We went to McDonald's and got breakfast before getting on the road. I thought to myself at that point "I could still go back." But I didn't. We got back into my little escort and hi tailed it to Cedar Point. On the way EVERYONE called. Aunt Necy called, Scurti called (Yes I STILL remember that phone call. Scurti ~ "How are you?" Me ~ "Well, I was FINE till you called ~ SOB SOB ~" My sister called, everyone called. I was a mess. Cedar point was a fuckin BLAST as it had always been.

That was the hardest day of my life. Bittersweet doesn't even begin to describe the extremes of emotions I was feeling that day. It doesn't. I just can't believe that a year went by so fast. I'll talk to all of you later! Thinking about you all!

Flying high defying gravity...
