(sorry, no pool pictures...i think everyone was pretty wet by the end of the night...and i drove home in a towel, haha)

it's funny how quickly things can change within a summer
and it’s no wonder that i find myself hanging out with my co-workers more often
when i should be trying to see those who are going
but then i realized that it shouldn’t always be me who’s always trying
and while i may miss what we had, it doesn’t mean that i miss you.

goodbyes one by one…
in just one week i said farewell to four of my closest guy friends
many others are already gone and the numbers are growing small here at home
it’s so great to see and genuinely keep in touch with those who are truly your friends
whether they’re leaving, still here, already gone…thanks.

nonetheless, things are pretty peachy, haha.
i hope you are all doing well!!

i can’t believe i have three weeks left here.
