A Day of Goodbyes

Hey, so I just said good bye to Jenna and Danielle. I had a really good bye with Jenna, I spent the day with her. Some time ago Jenna asked if I would help her get her sleeping bag into it's bag it's L.L Bean so it's really handy and convenient, meaning it can fit into a Ziploc bag basically. It takes two people, and she thought my strength would be helpful, and of course I agreed. I went to school today to pick up a paper, and meet Jenna, but I asked if she wanted to do lunch, so when she finally got to school, we went to Pizza Experts once more. That place could pay for my education, actually for 3D's education. Jenna and Danielle met Bas in there the other day... lol. Oh well. So we got pizza, and sat by the river and ate it, talking about everything under the sun. Out of everyone here, I'm probably going to miss Jenna the most, well along with Kathleen. It was really fun to sit by the river and devour the pizza. Lol. Over the course of our day, we had a discussion about Matt Berry's pointing ability, and how much we love it. When I showed Monica the Boosh, it was the episode where Matt Berry does this great point at Naboo, and I commented about how great of a pointer he is, and Monica looked at me really weirdly. Jenna understands though, we were walking down the street pointing at each other, and doing the point he does during the Diary song. So great.

Anyway, I helped Jenna put her sleeping bag in it's bag, it took awhile, a few restarts, but we did it. She bought me ice cream for it, because she wanted some, and it was my reward. She could never have done it by herself. After ice cream though, I went home, I really had to pack. She did too, since she is leaving tomorrow. I agreed to meet her and Danielle at Wag's later, Danielle wanted to say good bye, and she had my Rome and Greece Photo CDs.

So I actually just left them, I sat by the river for a few minutes after, but then I got hungry. The whole time I sat there, I kept playing One Track Lover by Matt Berry over and over again. No matter how sad you are, it makes you grin, and then Richard Ayoade's part makes you laugh. Actually, the whole song puts me in a good mood, it just hit Garth's slow part... it's amazing. This and Love Games, from the Boosh put me in a good mood, which of course only lasts 3 minutes.

I am looking forward to going home, there are some things I miss, but there is something about England, and Europe too. I love it, I love sitting in a pub for hours just talking, or walking everything. I love the walk between Seething Wells and the Bridge House. London of course has my heart, and tomorrow I have to say good bye to it. I've met so many amazing people here, that it is hard, but I do have to remember that I have friends in the States who eagerly await my arrival.

Oh I forgot to mention this morning. Amaya and Cassie left, I never saw Cassie leave, not sure how I missed that one. I was really sad about Amaya leaving, and she woke me up at 7:45am looking for toilet paper. When I heard her calling me, I jumped up out of bed thinking she wanted to say good bye. But then she told me it was 7:45am, and I had not slept through my alarm, and she still had about an hour an a half before it was time for her to go. I was a little angry. Anyway, Nye and I just sat in her room, and laughed at all her bags, and the stuff she had to keep donating because she had no room for it. I will be donating stuff too, but not as much as Amaya. But she got picked up by a private car, she had like 5 bags... and that was sad saying good bye to her.

Oh well, I think my dinner is ready.
