As the semester wraps up, I realize that I am really going to miss a lot of things while I am on my mission. I have known it was going to be hard to be away from my family for so long. I am going to miss them a lot. But I know my family will still be there when I get back.
I didn't realize how many people will be gone for good when I get back. The majority of my friends will graduate in a year and they will all move on while I am serving the Lord. I know this is a good thing and I want them moving on to fulfill their dreams it is just weird. It is kind of hard to take it all in.
I think the thing that makes me the most sad is that I am not investing very much time in seeing people because I am broken. I am just waiting until I can go home and have my surgery.
On a completely unrelated note, I have been watching these silent films with my roommate from last year called Judex. They are REALLY good. I think my favorite thing about silent films is that I can talk during them and I don't feel bad because I am not missing anything. They are awesome.

I feel your pain. I'm graduating AND going on a mission, so I'm leaving everything behind. BYUH was such a wonderfully unique place, and I will miss it, but at the same time I also feel like it isn't going to ache as much as I thought it would. I am so excited to serve a mission, I know that it will be worth it, even though I graduated early just to do it. I think you'll feel the same way once it gets closer. Preparing for a mission just makes you feel so HAPPY :).
