The Beginning of the Goodbyes

14 September 2004 // 12:13 p.m.

It's getting really hard to say goodbye. Deborah and another friend of mine left last Saturday, and this week, Sarah and Claire are leaving. Claire will be attending uni in the same city as me, but at a different University, so I'll see her again. As for the others, it seems like they're going to be so far away.

It's like realisation is finally beginning to dawn, and I understand what it means now; my friends will be spread out up and down the country, and I don't know how many of them will keep in touch with me.

I'm meant to be going out for a full farewell day tomorrow, and to be honest, I'm a little nervous. I'm not entirely sure why; maybe it's because Karen won't be there - we have this whole double-act thing around the friends we're going with. So without her, it'll just be...me.

Which, I suppose, is something I'm going to have to get used to if I'm living on my own in less than a month!

Now for the shameless pimping of my ~~current~~ favourite band, The Calling

(I put them on the video jukebox so much when I was out last night that people began to get annoyed...)
