high hopes for a new year. going from hating my school to falling in love with it. new friends. new wonderful, wonderful friends. a new place to call home. not wanting to leave this place. losing my furry princess. finding her. a summer filled with spontaneous adventures to nowhere and anywhere with my best friend. working all day every day. packing. losing a "best friend." more packing. stressing. even more packing. even more stressing. my first flight. my first time being far away from home. feeling alone again. breaking out of my shell. meeting new people. finding a second family in Florence. living my dream. leaving this magical place...
2012, you are now coming to a close... a bittersweet, but inevitable, close.
With this, I bid you adieu.
You will be missed.
ciao,
Darlene
