I have mixed emotions right now, I either don’t want to go back and want to stay with some of my friends or I really want to go back and see my family and other friends.
I’m still going to miss everyone here when I leave tomorrow. I guess I’ve really made friends with Galen, Ricky, Justin, Alan, Matthew, Scott, Kurt, and Eric. Almost all of them are on the Canada flight. The only ones on the San Francisco flight are Eric and Alan. Meaning I’m going to have to say something to the rest of them tonight.
I hate how Sarah has to take over all of my conversations like it’s a big deal to her on how I talk to people that she knows. Last Night Dr. John was the only person who would talk to me and allow me to walk up to him. He gave me a big hug and afterwards said, “Marry me and take me away from here” Which actually made me feel better. I only responded, “I don’t think Sherry-anne your wife would be too happy about that.” And thats how the conversation started. But not long after Sarah walked over and said “Are you cheating on me?” And took over the entire conversation. After they totally ignored me I walked off.
We went to the Bund which was kinda cool but it reminded me too much of the water village.
We then walked all the way to the NanJing road where we had our last shopping spree. I bought Mike’s stamps, myself a pouch, and a t-shirt.
After the concert we went to the Neptune revolving resturant. It was really fun watching the guys almost do the splits because they’re partially on the platform and partially not.
It made me really sad to think that I will not be seeing many of these faces again. I’m hoping it’s not going to be that way. Which is why I tried to give hugs to as many people as I could that I was going to sincerely miss. I even cried on the way back to the hotel.

-Writing that last bit about the restaurant, it reminds me of how I was standing behind Daniel watching him play so happily for everyone. I hope everyone had at least one good memory from that trip. Be it for me a sad ending where I could not say “I’m going to miss you” to many people because the tears would not stop welling up in my eyes every time I saw you right before the flight or after. I say it now to the open air, “I miss you guys with all my heart.” that even now I cannot bring myself to e-mail some of you because, all you wanted was pictures, yet, all I wanted was friendship.
