Seattle misses her hag :( ...

Seattle has now come to grasp a loss that is wrenching her very soul. Well, when I say Seattle, what I mean to say, really, is me. My dear Julie has boarded various planes, broken her back from the weight of her carry-on, eaten airport food, and watched attendants flail their arms. Her departure has left me thinking about my study abroad adventure that I am about to embark on: and I am freaking out. 

Now I know that this is real. 

It is a scary thought. But I think I am up for it. For now, I will simply enjoy the rest of the summer with my beautiful friends and enjoy whatever left I have of Summer 2008. And what's left of Seattle.
