Goodbyes

I realized I am not very good as goodbyes. I don't like them. I just feel awkward. And sad. And I don't like it. Today D and I went to lunch with a friend of mine. She is one of those friends I could talk to for hours (and we usually do when we get together) and I had to say goodbye. It made me sad. I am having a harder time leaving Michigan than I did leaving Utah. Maybe because I knew since I have family in Utah I will always have ties there. That is not the case with Michigan. I will have to make an effort to see most of these people again, and even then, some of them will move on after grad school themselves. I guess I am just better at see you laters.
