Today I am once again reminded of how much I am going to miss my life here when we leave. You know the friends that make you laugh so hard you nearly pee your pants? I am blessed to not only have those when I am home in the states but here as well. I am thinking about how hard it is going to be to leave (although it will be great to be back in America). This year is going to be so rough, since it is the year that we are all planning to leave... and go our seperate ways. I have no clue when or if I will ever see these great women again, but I hope to! So here's to my girls... I love you all so much! First there's Sunnie, she is so awesome! She makes me laugh constantly. I never get tired of her company. I see her everyday and talk to her on IM or Text when I am not with her... and we are beginning to think alike. We meet up at the gym every morning and 90% of the time we are dressed the same. It's crazy. Than there is Kerry and Debbie (my "English" friends)... with years of trying very hard to Americanize these girls we have finally succeeded. I remember when I first met them I could never understand what they were saying because of their accents. I would just nod and smile and hope I wasn't agreeing to something I would regret, lol! Now they speak like me... most of the time. Aside from all the laughing about the different ways we pronounce different words and the discussions about who says them right or wrong. Kerry has now started saying "freaking" and Debbie's parents complain that she sounds too "American"... and all I have to say to that is WHOOO HOOOO! Kerry never surprises me, she says the craziest things... and makes me laugh so hard. Even on only a couple of hours of sleep she is smiling and happy! I love these girls. And Sara... I am going to miss her. She and her husband work with Bjay and they are so much fun. We always laugh when they are around. She is pregnant now and I am really sad that I won't get to meet her baby! I was looking forward to having a baby around to snuggle and love and spoil and than give back... he he! And Jamie... she hasn't been here very long but we have had a great time getting to know her and have had some pretty fun Girls Night's Out with her! I look forward to getting to know her better over the next several months! My friends make me laugh a lot... that would explain the now prominant "laugh lines" that are developing (and making me feel very old)! Sara will be leaving us sometime before the end of May and it is killing me. I wanted to be the first to go just so that I could get the saddness of it all over with. With my luck I will be the last... wallowing in my own pity! Locked in my room stuffing my face with whatever chocolate I can find to ease the loneliness! So there you have it... they keep me young and they make me look old. I really love you girls. Let's make our last year the BEST ever!!!!!
