In less than a week, I will be going off to Europe for my study abroad. What I already know is that it is going to be an awesome experience and that I am going to make some new friends. But I thought I would take the time to say a brief "see you later" to everyone I know.
First of all I would like to thank my family who supported me and helped me get to where I am. Thank you for all the help with this trip and I will surely keep in touch!
And to my sister who is my best friend. I will miss you a lot. I am sorry that I have to leave you once again but this time I will be much farther away. I know that you are just a text away but I hope that you start off your senior year in the best way. Make sure you do not get too much senioritis like I did and get everything done on time. Good luck applying for college! It is going to be a stressful period of time but I am sure you can do it!
Finally, to all of my friends- at home and from college- I know that I will see you soon and I hope that this fall semester treats you well. For my college friends, I know that I will surely miss you this first semester. It is going to be weird not going to college with you for four months. I will miss you and I look forward to video chatting every week! And as far as my friends from home go, I know that it is harder to keep in touch when we are not together at school but I hope the contact stays the same like it did last year. I cannot wait to share the experiences I have with you when I get home for winter break!
To everyone, remember that it is not goodbye. It is just a "see you in four months". That may seem like a long time, but it is going to fly by!
Love,
Sam
