The end of Karmiel.

How do I feel about this?
Let's call it 'mixed feelings.'
On one hand, I am really excited to live in Jerusalem.  I am looking forward to the Etgar program and the flat and meeting the Southerners.
On the other hand, I'm going to miss Karmiel.  I am going to miss this group, I'm going to miss MDA and the station and the people like crazy, I'm going to miss the area and the mountains and the city.  I'm really going to miss MDA.
Today, after getting out of bed around 4:30pm (don't judge, today was only sleep-in day), we all went to the Family Park and spent time on the playground, in the maze, on the grass, playing mini golf, and just hanging out all together.  Then we found this hill with a flag pole and a view that overlooks all of Karmiel and we had Sueda and Havdallah there.  It was really nice and almost emotional in the 'our last Havdallah together' kind of way.  On the walk home, everybody was in a good mood just being with each other.
Now for a Life Lesson:
The inevitable is coming, and I can't change that.  There's no way to stop the changes that are approaching.  So instead of becoming frustrated with it and sulking over it, I should accept it, take a lot of pictures of these last few days, and keep the happy memories.  Then try to make the next part as amazing as this has been.

I know I'd change over Shnat, but did anyone think I'd become this cheesy?

All of us, Miri (our Hebrew teacher), and Galit
