Everything is wrapping up nicely in Florence. I finished classes on Thursday with all A’s, had a wonderful goodbye dinner with everyone in my program, and tonight we’re all going to the last aperitivo.

The only thing that’s not wrapping up nicely is me…I never want to leave. Packing today has been so difficult. Taking down boys phone numbers from my bulletin board, gathering up all my clothes from their drawers, folding up my map of Europe…it all feels like I’m losing little bits of myself and my life in Florence.

I guess I just don't know how to say goodbye to the best time of my life.
