Paris...
in about 4 days…
This is crazy to think about. It’s crazy to think about how 3 1/2 months flew by at home. How even being able to spend 3 1/2 months at home felt too short, like not enough time, it is never enough time, to be with the boyfriend.

It’s finally starting to hit me that I’m leaving in approximately a week.
Leaving is always hard. It doesn’t matter that I’m leaving for Paris; I am leaving behind my other half.
Cue waterworks.
