Hey Guys,
As I was getting ready to leave college for the summer I experienced a mix of emotions. I was excited to be able to spend time with my family and take a break from classes for a bit, but I also was dreading leaving you all. Then the day came and I had to leave you all for four months. Needless to say, there were tears shed.
As I was driving away I felt a tugging on my heart. The best way to describe it is as if I was holding on to an elastic that was connected to you all back on campus. As I drove away I felt the tension and pressure pulling me back to you guys. I know it's a little corny but you all have become a second family to me.
In those moments when I needed a shoulder to cry on you were there. When I needed to take a break from working on papers and projects you were there. When I needed a good laugh you did something dumb to give me that laugh. You guys are my family and love me regardless of what I'm dealing with or how much of an idiot I'm being. I thank you for that.
I'll miss you guys this summer more than words can describe. I'll miss our late night adventures, our deep conversations, and our ridiculous laughing fits. Because of you all, I have some pretty great stories to tell, like that one time we almost hit Ryan Stevenson with my car or that other time when we made a late night trip to Wegmans and ran through the store like we were kids.
I hope you all feel the same way about me, otherwise, this would be awkward. Who am I kidding, of course, you miss me (insert hair flip emoji). Even though I can't be there with you all right now just know that I wish I was and that I will be soon. I'm counting down the days until I can be with you guys again. Until that day comes I will be sending plenty of Bitmojis and Snapchat so you don't forget what my face looks like.
I miss you guys already on day one of summer break. But here is the good news: we are one day closer to being together again! As the days pass by this summer I will miss you all but I will hold on to the fact that I am one step closer to going "home" to you all, my second family.
