And the curtains start to close.

This is it. Tomorrow is my last day at Villa Finale as an intern and I will miss it sorely. I will miss Meg and her welcoming voice and smile, Katie and her advice, hearing stories about Mexico from Karina, and Tina talking about her children. I will miss Chris and Orlando, who were always kind to me as well. Some song lyrics from The Killers ring true at this moment:


Aggressively, we all defend the role we play
Regrettably, the time's come to send you on your way
We've seen it all: from bonfires of trust to flash floods of pain
It's doesn't really matter, don't you worry it will all work out
No it doesn't really matter, don't worry, that ain't what its all about

We hope you enjoyed your stay
And it's good to have you with us
Even if it's just for the day
We hope you've enjoyed your stay
Outside the sun is shining
It seems like heaven ain't far away
Its good to have you with us
Even if it's just for the day


Tomorrow I will have to say goodbye and set off on further adventures. What they are about and where they will be, I do not know. I hope that I will be going to grad school in Colorado or in North Carolina and that Joe will have a good job too. I look forward to my future adventures bright-eyed and hopeful. God will not let me down.
