My Knightlife

It stinks when everyone leaves before you do…I’d rather be the one everyone is saying goodbye to because that is actually what is happening, but it seems reverse because some of them are going home before school gets started.  

Bryana, one of the close friends I made here in California, left today to go back to Los Angeles for the weekend before she is back on Tuesday for Torrero Days. T-Days is similiar to our orientation program that we have on our campus. It was really tough saying goodbye. I had made here a cube photo spinner because four of us were really good friends. It was Jonnie, Jeanie, Bryana and I. We called ourselves “J Cubed + B” so I thought the cube was symbolic of that. Two other things are still in the mail so she will get them late.

Its hard to leave people you have become so close with over a few months. It felt like I just got here yesterday. It was such a great relaxing and drama free summer that I just didn’t want to see it go. Bryana gave me red and white baby socks. She was looking for Red Sox ones, but couldn’t find any. We always used to laugh because we would go out and all of a sudden she would take this sock out of her bag…she used it to protect her camera and cellphone. She gave me a four picture photo frame, pictures, and then a Nordstrom gift card with specific instructions to be used for tax on sunglasses I have been checking out.

Eyes got all watered up as we walked out to her car…I was really treated so special since I have been here. I felt as though it was my home since the day I arrived. These relationships are unlike any other and some of them I am going to really miss a lot, like this one. The many inside jokes…like…Montessori, pinche gordona, and so many more.

Anyways her mom doesn’t think a flight to Florida is feasible, on the other hand we DO!
