My Mels is gone. 
No more North&South/Pride and Prejudice/Jane Eyre/Pixar-a-thons. 
At least I got to see her off today. Granted I ran back and forth about 3 km today (no joke!) Working at the airport is a great workout. :)

I am stoked about the family's trip to Guatemala this Christmas (chilling with Sebas, Nita, Gaby and my favourite niece and nephew will be spectacular!), but I now wish we were staying in Eddie-ton. I won't get to see Mel for LONG, extended periods of time until summer. Granted, we're planning our trip to the UK... and now, Justin's coming with us, so YAY! More people.

I still miss her. Is this how my friends and family felt when I left for Montreal the second time? According to Char, yes. At least, now, I get it.


Is it selfish to wish I was far away, too?

Milly's interpretation of me was not that far off-base; she inferred that I'm reserved, prideful, loyal, hard-working, stubborn, and creative --- but she also told me that I can come off as "cold". Now, it's interesting to me that what stuck with me most is the fact she called me cold. Not the fact she correctly guessed that I like to feel people out before baring my thoughts to them. Not the fact she told me I'm creative, but am wasting my talents. Nope. What affected me most about her reading is that I can come off as cold to certain people. I've been called so many things in my life (haven't we all?), but the things I've been called in the past have always had a more... well, a positive spin. I...
