Not saying goodbye, but instead, "Hasta luego!" (see you later!)

Hey people,
I'm just going to a "goodbye party" so I feel this is the right time to post this blog, especially seeing as most/everyone has gone now.....
This is the crazy thing about Erasmus. You meet people who you would never have imagined meeting before in your life. People from all different countries, different walks of life. Some you meet and think you'll become fast friends, and that sadly doesn't happen. But the most surprising and amazing thing for me is when you meet someone who you at first thing that you have nothing in common with- but you end up becoming very very good friends.
Now, I guess that is a life thing too, but there's something about Erasmus that is unique- you're all in the same position. You've all come to a foreign place, with a foreign language, and you've all been thrown into the deep end.
Some people only come here for 5 months. I'm here for a total of 10 months, which for me although at first it seems like a lot, having been here for the first half it seems to have gone sooo quickly. I'm not sure that I will want to leave when it comes to it. Actually, what am I saying, OF COURSE I won't want to leave. I always miss England, my family and my friends, but living here and having this opportunity is something that I may welll never have again.
Anyway, back to the goodbyes. Some of them have been horrible. One of my best friends here has already left me (you know who you are :( ) and she was someone who I always talked to (about anything), we went out, we went to Salamanca, we made an awful lot of memories. And there are my flatmates too, who put up with me :D and who have made my experience here so far very special.
It's very sad to say goodbye especially when you think that some of these people you may never see again, but I hope that some day, I will. (Also, you know who you are, we definately WILL be seeing each other again ;))
Anyways, that's it for now I guess. Hope you all have a great night!
:D
