Well I'm done all my finals now!! Wrote my use and abuse final this morning. They gave you an hour for it, but a lot of us were done in a half hour. (It was only 56 multiple choice questions.) So that's nice to be out of the way!!! :> Now I have almost two weeks to spend as much time as is humanly possible with Chris before I have to go home.

It actually worked out really, really nicely. See, originally we thought that Chris would finish his exams and then the next week have to go back to class (his course is a month and a half longer than everyone else) but turns out he gets this week off before he has to go back. Then we thought that since he had the week off he'd be made to work with his dad and do filing for about a million hours a day, but also turns out that he's not being made to do that either, so we'll be able to spend as much time with each other this week as we want! :>

I still can't believe that I go home in slightly less than 2 weeks... All year long my return date has been so far in the future it was hardly worth even thinking about. Any time I did try and think about when I'd be going home, all my brain could come up with was, a really long time from now. But now, suddenly, it's almost here. I don't even know if it's the idea of going home that seems so strange to me, obviously I always knew I'd be going back at some point, but I think it's the way that I perceive when I'm going back that's so different and strange to me. Not sure if that made any sense and if it didn't I'm not sure if I could explain it so that it did...

Sometimes I think I'm ready to come home, ready to see everyone I left behind. Most of the time it just makes me sad to think of leaving Chris here. I just keep reminding myself that it won't be long distance forever and that time passes much faster than you realize.
