Last Post from England

So this will probably be my last post ever from Larch Flat 1F, University Village, UEA, Norwich, UK, NR47TJ. I've pretty much packed everything up, and managed to get it all into 2 suitcases, a carryon, and a backpack, after throwing away half my wardrobe. Unfortunately I can't fit any of my books or class work, so I'm leaving behind 15 nice books, hopefully the rest of the flat will make use of them (I highly doubt they'll ever be opened again). My room looks so bare. I'm beginning to get very sad about leaving. It's really hitting me that this is it. 5 people have left in the past few days so now I'm just hanging out here with Dom and Richard, who are sticking around so they can drive me to the airport tomorrow and say goodbye. We're all packing and cleaning, listening to Christmas music and being very sad that this is our last night together. Many tears to come.

This has been the best best semester, I'm so happy. Thank-you Mama and Daddy for sending me here and all of the family for supporting my big adventure! As sad as I am to be leaving, I can't wait to see you, share my pictures and stories, and celebrate the Holidays.
