Two more days?

Friday, December 11 – Pacific
13:28
I can’t believe it’s almost over. It’s rather depressing. Everyone keeps mentioning how the end is near, but their friends quickly stop them with some response like, “don’t talk about it.”  I have one more exam, and then I’m free to record a video tour of the ship, trade pictures/music, and pack. My friends and I have yet to sleep on the deck, so I wonder if we’ll do that tonight. We also have a logistical preport tonight!

Tomorrow is Reflection/Reentry day. The ship has a few ceremonies and seminars planned. One seminar is offering to mail a letter to yourself from yourself a year from now. I think I’m going to do that. The Alumni Ball is also tomorrow.

Wow. I can’t believe this is almost over. I’m going to miss these people so much. The majority of them I will never see again. Some of my close friends I will definitely be seeing - even within the next few years. It’s really difficult to accept that this is almost over. This time next week I will be recovering from going out to The Castle, cuddling with Alphonse, playing Wii with TD, and eating some of my favorite foods.

If home is where the heart is, going there will be difficult, considering my heart is now spread throughout the world.
