Summer in Boone

So I am a "senior," even though I will not be graduating until next December. I was excited at first to be staying in Boone for a while longer, but now that a lot of my friends are leaving I am realizing how weird Boone is about to be. Luckily one of my good friends will be here until the end of the summer, but after that she along with my two other childhood best friends will be gone. Nicole is off to UNC for grad school, Emilie has no idea what she wants to do and Kaitlin is hoping to get a job in Boston. I know 2 of the 3 will most likely still be in NC, but it will be the first time in 17 years we will be apart from each other. We were all talking about it the other day and the conversation got really sad and strange. I don't think we had realized how much we rely and care about one another until we started talking about it. All I can hope is that even with the distance between us that we stay as close as we have always been.
