This past week was "summer vacation." I spent it beginning my internship, registering/starting one of my classes, organizing my summer study schedule, working on things for all of my activities, and basically being regular old Emily. But what did I discover? That I don't want to be here for more than another year. Even if eventually I make it back to Gainesville, this place is not going to be able to hold me for much longer. And watching my friends leave reminded me that that is ok. There is so much world out there, and holding on to the things I love is always going to be difficult. So here are some of the places I want to remind myself that I wish I was...even if it's not until tomorrow.
The Medical University of South Carolina...earning my MHA.
and more importantly...
Charleston, SC
The beautiful beaches of Sarasota
Cape Town, South Africa...which I was supposed to land in today
Back with all of those who gave their lives so that I could have a land of my own...where some of my friends are currently
Climbing (tibet)
And most importantly...the place I return to consistently each year...
My favorite place of all
