My Reason to Hate Goodbyes, Airports and Aeroplanes.

People say Life is full of everything - ecstasy, pain, anger, sadness, hellos, goodbyes, love, heartbreak, etc.
And of course it is. I know I'm just pointing out something everyone past the age of 5 knows, but sometimes, I think, we need to be reminded of all this.
I haven't said goodbye to someone in a long time. (And by goodbye I don't mean, 'Bye, I'll see you tomorrow!')
I mean, a real goodbye when one leaves the country for some period of time (I'm such a sap).
And before, when I did say goodbye like this, it didn't mean much.
The last year has been one of the happiest, cacophonic, disastrous, years of my life. Yet. (I'm HARDLY 17)
And in this last year I've met some of the most frustrating, annoying, wonderful, beautiful (inside and out), mysterious, nerve wracking people I've ever known.
These talented individuals are now my best friends.
Sure, I've had best friends since I was little but I think I've done some real growing in the last year. (Says the girl who still squeals like a pig when she sees a spider. Or anything chocolate)
I've lost good friends but gained a lot more.
I've grown another inch or two. (*sigh* Will this ever stop?)
I've loved and lost.
I haven't cried over silly things.
I've matured a liiiiitle more.
So, this time when I bid a hearty (Dafuq? Why do I use words like 'hearty'?) farewell to my family ('friends' seems to simple and insignificant), I felt something.
Well, I didn't cry or anything (I've never cried saying goodbye, I really don't know why) but I felt this aching sadness realizing I'm not going to see this people for half a month.
I won't talk to them everyday or randomly meet them at coffee shops and sit for hours talking about nothing to everything (BooSoo :/)
I won't sit for hours talking in my room about the SILLIEST and WILDEST crap for 15 days (Mo :( )
I won't flirt and exchange Harry Potter pick up lines for 15 days (Shay :( )
I genuinely, from the bottom of my heart, will miss you blithering idiots.
See you on the 6th <3
