I just said goodbye to my hostfamily. It left me really upset. It might be stupid, but I feel incredibly sad about leaving them.
I've only known them for 4. almost 5, months, but somehow they feel like my family. I thought yesterday was bad... saying goodbye to all of my friends, but today eating Dinner with my host parents for the last time... well, it hurt. It hurt badly, knowing that I won't see them for at least a year, maybe even two.
I wish I could shake of that feeling like some of my friends - or something like that - have. Just saying goodbye and being down with it. I became really close with a lot of people and I am going to miss them terribly. I can already imagine some of my friends - and family - not being able to understand why and poke fun at me. I'm not much of a crybaby - except maybe movies - nor do I get attached that easily - no matter if it seems that way - but I really made great friends here. People who understand and care about me. It surprised me, really. Yet I am extremely glad that I met them and became friends with them.
I wish I could concentrate on other things, like reading, writing or just listening to music, but at the moment all that's going on in my head is how many hours I'll have to study per day to improve my grades and get back to Japan. Sad, really.
