Sometimes we don't always have the opportunity to say goodbye, but I did with you. It was really difficult for me because I knew we wouldn't see each other for a long time.

Attending college has made me realize how easy it is for people to jump into and out of your life. You came into my life unexpectedly, and saying goodbye to you was really difficult for me because I knew our paths wouldn't cross for a long time. You're going to be so far away, and that scares me. I'm trying to tell myself that this goodbye doesn't have to mean forever because I really want you to be in my life even if you will be thousands of miles away.

I never told you this, but I wasn't in the best place this second semester. I was going through some personal things, and I didn't think I would ever get over it. But you changed me. You gave me the happiness I was looking for. I'm trying not to be corny, but I can't help it. My weekends will be less exciting without you and my late night walks to the park will be very quiet. I'll miss our late night McDonald adventures and all your attempts to make me listen to country music. Thank you for doing touristy stuff with me and being my date to formal. I hope you're reading this so you know how grateful I am for you.

And while our time was short, it will always be remembered.

While my time at Boston University has been difficult at times, I can wholeheartedly say that my experiences here have helped make me a better person. I've met a lot of people here (some good, others not so good.) And to be perfectly honest, I am going to be really sad to leave for summer vacation. I'll wear my Jersey pride on my sleeve, but Boston will always have a special place in my heart.
