We need never be hopeless

Everything I never knew seems to be what you do. 

Hold me close and never let me go. 

Because babe you and I are something extraordinary. 

How do you know exactly what to say.

You need my close.

You need me now and everything I am not. 

This is what I see right now.

As time goes by everything fades away.

And that once undesirable feeling is no longer a want. 

The stop sign is now closer in the distance. 

Ill cross the line and say goodbye. 

Farewell. 

First year complete

I am sitting in my dorm room for the last time. All my bags are packed.  I just finished my last exam of first year and I am already having that awful feeling in my stomach.  I am waiting for my mom to come pick me up and I will never live in Willison again.  I love this residence.  I know a lot happened this year.  More than I ever expected and there were times where I wanted to go home.  There were times when I just thought things hit rock bottom.  But then things began to change for me, I began to think of the postive and stop dwelling on the negative things.  I knew things were going to be different but I also knew things would just work out in the end.  I met so many people this year. And I love so many of them.  I never thought I would be able to connect with this many people, I never thought that I would love it this much and I never thought that I would do all the things that I did this year.  I have grown so much and I know that.  I love who I have grown into.  I know it is going to be lonely this summer because I am not constantly surrounded by my floor or by the other people that I was lucky enough to get close with.  I loved this year more than any other experience.  I loved it more than my trip to Italy and I loved it more than high school.  First year was everything I could have asked for and more.  I have done so much this year and it has just made me into this new person.  I have stepped out of my shell and I am finally myself around everyone and that is thanks to the girls on my floor.  I know I have made friendships that will last longer than I can ever imagine.  I know that some of us will grow apart and some of us will not talk but I know if I see one of the girls and we cross paths having the memories we made in Willison will just all come rushing back and that connection the floor had this year will come back. Wow I have turned into the biggest softy.  My heart and stomach actually hurt right now because I do not want to leave this place, I do not want to leave this year.  I just do not want things to change.  I love change but I hate it at the same time.  I do not want things to change, I want things to stay the same,  But they will change and I will grow to accept that.  Because what I learned most this year is that growing up is not so scary because you meet so many people and you make so many memories and even though times do get hard and you want to give up, what I know now that I did not know when I came to Laurier was that growing up means new experiences, means taking your past and making it into a better present.  Thank you everyone that helped to make my first year so amazing.  I love Laurier, I love Willison, I love my friends and most of all I love the experience.  I am so happy and so sad at the same time.  See you around WIllison I know your memories will always be my favourite things.
