Entry: What would Jane do? Saturday, August 19, 2006



Standing in Laura Schneider's driveway, I was suddenly hit with the reality of my situation and I started tearing up.  As I slowly glided down Wickford those tears started gliding down my face and by the time I soared over the first speed hump on Crofton I was full out sobbing.  When I made my turn onto Field Club sobbing turned to giggling and by the time I got onto Powers Run I was just a big mess of tears and laughter.  Speeding down Freeport and wiping away tears, I remembered that the last thing joked about was the size of my head as a baby and everything just seemed so ridiculous that I laughed so hard I almost crashed into something, but by the time I pulled into my garage I realized I had a whole lot of packing I just didn't want to do.  I ate a truffle and things are looking a teensy bit better.

Oh ... Denial.  It seems as if just last week I was starting elementary school and just yesterday I graduated from high school.  Then I'm seeing people before they leave and seeing people before I leave.  Hours before it's time to go I still can't grasp the fact that we're all leaving for different parts of the country if we haven't left already.  Even through my last round of hugs and saying, "Well ... I guess I'll see you ... soon?" I still don't realize that this is really it.  Then it just smacks me in the face like a glass door that I didn't see until I had walked into it.

I miss everyone like crazy ... Please write!

Most definately felt this way when I left. And my time at college has gone so much faster than high school. Could be in part because I graduate in May, but I don't think so. Don't take the experience you can have for granted. Do as much as you can while you're still in school. Learn and love, but most importantly live. I miss you and I love you. I wish I was there to have adventures and fun with you. I think it is pathetic that I am crying as I write this, but I have less than a year left of college, and it still seems like yesterday I left Fox Chapel. I remember our goodbye, vaguely, but most certianly remember it. I am happy to still call you my friend after all of these years. Love you and miss you.

Ohmyga, I know it's so hard saying goodbye. Please don't stop writing, I love reading your entries even if I don't always comment. Keeping your blogdrive or livejournal will keep us updated on your college life. Though, I think I keep mine more for my own benefit. Anyways, I'll miss you and everyone else. Have fun!!! HOpe I can come and visit really soon.

Ahhhhh! Jane! Me too!

only I almost crashed into Big Lin, which is most likely a LOT scarier than whatever you were going to hit.

oh yeah, and your baby head was SO big. just saying.
