I'm writing again way before I expected to. Well, I suppose I may be writing more leading up to the start of my program because I have all these emotions.
Firstly, I realized I wrote last night that we went from Florence to Venice. I typed up that whole thing way too late. Between Florence and Venice we went to Cortina for three days. There we skied the Italian Alps. It was crazy beautiful. I only went skiing for two days (instead of the full 3) and have been regretting that decision since. That was the only time I'll get to ski this entire season. Boo.
So, a couple of hours ago my dad and I dropped Mom & Kyle off at the train station. Really weird. Its so strange knowing that I won't see them again for 5 months. And I went through all the goodbyes with extended family and friends before I left. But that was different--it wasn't real yet. And everyone was saying goodbye anyways cos it was the start of winter break. This was far more real. I went off to college 3 years ago, but I only moved an hour and a half away. And I tried to come home for a day at least every month so that Kyle wouldn't have to be the only child for a day. I really like taking care of him, and its so strange to know that I won't be.
I'm also nervous because people can change a lot in 5 months. I know I will. But Kyle is like that age where change happens. I know my junior year of high school I matured and went through a transformation. I hope that Kyle & I stay in contact enough that if he does change he won't seem foreign to me when I return. I know the rest of the family and the majority of my friends will be the same, so I'm not so worrying about that with them. Its gonna be hard not to see familiar faces for so long however. Alright, that's it for now.

p.s. Kyle & Mom--I (strangely given how much you guys piss me off) miss you both already. = )
