My Summer Was Kind of Spontaneous

WHOA for some reason this didn't post last summer. I wrote it as I was leaving Florida last year!









So, this summer has been absolutely crazy. Apologies for not keeping you up to date.


For instance, Papa John's? Yeah, don't work there anymore. That trip I was taking to Disney World with my friends? Well, you see, I ended up loving it so much that when I went down there I had to go back and spend, you know, the entire remainder of my summer working for the mouse and hanging out with friends.

Today's just a day that I'm missing those friends terribly. I guess it's been since last night that I have had this overwhelming feeling that I just want to see them, hug them, just BE with them.

These are my two dear friends Luke and Jackson (Luke on the left, Jackson on the right). 

Luke is my adorable British friend. I only knew him for 3 weeks before I left Florida for home for good this summer, but the night before I left, we stayed up till 4 in the morning, just us, and talked about how hard it is to leave. He also has to go home to England because his program is over. And while we were having this talk, we both came to the conclusion that even though we only knew each other for 3 weeks, we had no idea what we were going to do without each other. I definitely fell in love with him (absolutely 100% best friend material right here). There were tears involved, huge alligator tears on his end. And then we took him back to his apartment the next morning and I had to have my last Luke hug and we both cried. We've been texting and I called him on my way home and starting crying. Waterworks galore.

Jackson, I only knew for 1 1/2 weeks. We had sooo many adventures in those two weeks. We talked about collar bones, met princesses, watched all 3 night shows in one night, made chocolate covered strawberries and other delicious treats with Stev, worked crazy hours together, and had some really great talks about life. He has definitely changed my view of what a good friend is. When I dropped him off at the airport when he had to go home, I helped him get his suitcases out of my hatchback and after I did we had the most magical hug. Then he grabbed my hand and told me how much he was going to miss me and that I was his favorite person that he had met this time around at Disney. Can you say heartbreak? I've known this guy for only a week and a half and I'm about to break down in tears because I'm going to miss him so much! Now every time I drive down Jackson St. I'll think about him.
