The First to Leave...

So it is official. The first American has left back for the States this week on Monday. Sad day for us all. But a wonderful and crazy filled weekend celebrating/mourning his last few days in France.

Dear Chris,
If you read this, come back!!! Minnesota doesn't need you because Angers isn't the same without you. We all miss youuuu!

Chris leaving just makes me realize that all of us will be parting soon. One by one we will be leaving by planes, trains or automobiles to our respective countries (or home states). Some of the people I have met out here will soon be thousands of miles away from me while others will just be a couple hundred. It is sad to realize that in about a month, the friendships we have made out here will become scattered (not ended because I plan to stay in contact with those who have made a impact on my life out here). Yet, I know that I have created some of the best memories out here and I wouldn't trade any even them, stupid or not, for the world! And for that I am grateful.

Dear Friends, Mes Amis, 

I love you all! That is all :)
