Good-byes Suck!

It's starting to hit me that I have to say good-bye to people before I leave. I had to say good-bye to my best friend only moments ago, and I won't be able to see her for a whole year and a half. B/c she leaves on a journey of her own 8 days before I return from mine. And she doesn't get back until June of 2006. To be honest the whole situation sucks. But I guess that's the way it has to be.
