My pride is my comrades, my friends!

I have good friends, I really do. Not two hands full of friends but in enough quantity and quality. And now that I am 4 weeks apart from the end of the term and school year, I finally realise that my 2nd year was the most exciting, endearing, challenging, fun and in general full and deeply heartfelt year I've ever had. I've made so many good friendships and I've done so many exciting things with these friends. We've bonded beyond borders of language and we've supported each for every trial we were put through. It was miles beyond what I could ever have asked for and I am so tremendously grateful for having had the opportunity to meet all of them. 

Nevertheless as the end of the term approaches, so does our contact with each other. Two of my closest friends here in England are going away and we're not going to see each other for a really long time, I'm sure. So this is it for us. The last weeks of what we expect to be a lifetime friendship. The final countdown for people who will forever be in my mind and heart. I really do love them.. All of them and I feel so blessed for the opportunity I had to get to know them. The real people they are. The loving hearts they have. The energy they spread. The happiness they brought to me and to my life. They are truly unique with their geeky personalities and desires for the perfect guy to come along and notice them.  

I'm sure we'll be fine and we are going to work through this and find a way to meet each other in the future but it is just hard to imagine it. 

I was so involved in own matters of heart and romance this year that I barely noticed that love was coming from somewhere else, from someone else. They really took care of me. They handled my emotional baggage as I've never seen it done before and I tell you, it is heavy...I have a lot of things going within me. So, for all of that, Thank You. Thank you so much! You are so very special to me!

Love always, 

Tommy

PS. I went to watch 300 rise of an empire. I remember watching the first 300 some time ago when it was on tv but I didn't particularly pay much attention to it or enjoyed it that much. Nevertheless, last night, I don't know if it was the company or my internal state because I was really needing it but I loved watching 300 rise of an empire. I loved it SO MUCH. I felt so empowered when I left the cinema as you can see by the photos :p I felt as if, I could aim for the stars and achieve beyond them. And I wasn't the only. My friends felt the same and it is wonderful when a film really can give that kind of strength that mostly only books do. So it was a great film and great time spent and sure I recommend it to anyone and everyone!

At last, I'd like to mark that this is my 500th (published) post to MK. I can't believe I have written that many and I can't believe you're all still around to check them out! Thanks! Stay tuned for more!
