Wake me up when September ends..

As August winds to a close, it's hard not to think back on all the good times I've had over the years. After all, this isn't just a normal end of the summer. All the other ones, I went back to where I was somewhat comfortable, somewhat aware of my surroundings. But now..
Things are crazy! I don't know where im going, only where I've been, and so it is indeed a new beginning, a fresh start. I've been saying goodbye to my friends over the past couple of days, and it's just been really tough, thinking about leaving behind the only life I've ever known, the only friends i've ever known.. you know what I mean? Just yesterday, a friend of mine gave me a card, filled to the brim with memories, good times and bad, and I almost cried, just remembering all of it. THe other day, I was packing up my stuff and I placed into my bin, a photo of me and my best friend, and I just sat on my bed, and started crying. I can't imagine leaving... But amidst all the sadness, I know that the friendships of which I speak will last through these times, because a little bit of distance only means we'll talk on the phone alot more often. My first priority when I get to Calgary is to figure out a damn good long distance plan..
I said goodbye to another one of my friends today, it was so wierd, thinking that it's gonna be months and months till I see her again. *sighs dramatically*

I've gotten my class schedule, and so far it's looking good. Nothing monday, three classes on tuesday and thursday, and two on wednsdays and fridays. Next semester, I'm signed up for three classes, plus intersession, but I still have to sign up for my electives. So we'll see about that. According to mike, I'll be living in Apt. 602, which is really big, and he'll be living in apt. 102, which is also rather large. I can't wait, im getting really excited. But mixed in with the excitment is apprehension, there's so much that I dont know.. So much to figure out when i get there. But I know that every little thing is going to work out, because God's gonna take care of me.

As for now, this is going to be cut short, because Im going out with yet another friend, to say "goodbye".. So peace out, goodbye for now, and I'll always love you all!

Love forever: shle
xoxo

and who has that much time,
and how do you keep your feet on the ground
when you were born
Born to fly."
