Don't want to leave !

Today is April 26.

I have 35 days left in Poteau and 41 days until I have to leave the United States... Someone tell me this is not true??!!

Where did the time go? I can't believe how fast time passes by... 

It feels like I haven't been here for much longer than, I don't know, 2 months maybe. But no, it's been almost 9 months already, 269 days to be exact. 

It seems so unreal and I don't want to get all sentimental and stuff, but I think I might actually cry here in a little bit. 

It's crazy to think that in a little over a month I'll be back in Germany. Crazy that I won't be around all these crazy Americans anymore. Crazy that I won't go to Poteau High School anymore.. 

But even if I won't be here next school year, I will always be a Pirate! I know that these people here will always be my friends.

You wouldn't think that you could be so close with people you haven't known for a very long time, but my friends here are like another family. We've gotten so close, I can't imagine my life without them; I don't want to!

I'm already making plans with them to come and visit me but it won't be until they graduate probably. And just thinking about not being able to see them for over a year makes me wanna start crying again. 

I know all this probably sounds really cheesy to y'all, but it's the truth. I don't want to leave, but I guess I'll have to, eventually..

But You Will Always Be In My Heart ♥ Forever A Pirate
