Last Week

I have just one week left in Galway. I can't even begin to describe the overwhelming emotions I've been feeling. I have made such wonderful friends here this semester and I've truly started to feel at home here. I can't imagine going back to the way life was before, and I don't intend to. I've been changed this semester, and so I will return a changed person. We are all being sent to various corners of the globe, but we will remain friends across the distances. We will write to one another and maybe someday get to visit the faraway places that are still just stories for now. And someday we will all be reunited together again, and we will get to be together for eternity. That is the best thing of all. I have been so incredibly blessed this semester and I am so grateful for each opportunity I was given. The time went by way too fast, but we made the most of it and we have some wonderful memories. For that I am so truly grateful. To all my Galway friends, I love all of you so much! Thanks for an amazing semester. I can't wait to see you soon.
