lasts

Last day of teaching, last day of work, last train ride, last bike ride, last donut, last basement of joy visit, last run with the running group, last swim, last dinner, last day - this has been a week of lasts. And today will be a day of last things, as we leave this afternoon. Like I said in one of my previous blogs, this year went by so quickly, but was so full and complete at the same time; it was not 100m dash fast but fast-marathon fast. There was so much and there are so many amazing memories, and I know that even though this is the end of our time here, it's just the beginning of some amazing friendships that I hope will last and last and last. I, for one, am happy to be going home, but sad to be leaving. :) :(
