2006 is ending

Friday 22 December 2006, Luna Nova

"Time went by like the blink of an eye, the year 2006 which was full of events was coming to an end, I never thought that a short year like that would see so many events happen at once, but it did happen and it was incredible, it had its ups and downs, but it's coming to an end to make way for the next year. In those last few days I spent training with my mum and then even had a little break when my mum came home, to prepare the house for the short winter holidays, which are only two weeks at home, but you can rest well until you go back to school, and then the last day of school that year arrived and we were released for the holidays, and I was really looking forward to it."

And we've reached the end of the lesson, finally, I've been counting down the minutes until the winter holidays start, I can't wait to go home, to have fun there, it'll be a shame not to have Rebecca and Daniella with me, since they're going home, but at the same time I'll feel happy to be home, even excited if Mum Bernadette comes to visit us.
I leave the living room with my friends and we walk down the corridors together, it's a rush, we're practically being pushed to run, all because everyone wants to go to their rooms to collect their things and pack their suitcases, I'm very anxious to go home too, but not as anxious as these people.
The traffic slowed down and we were able to breathe a little, arriving at the door to our room, we walked in looking at each other and went to get our bags, it's going to be time to leave, I'm really excited.

"Honestly, I wish I could stay here as long as possible, I don't want to go home now" said Parker.

"I can't wait to get back home, I miss it there, it's just going to be a bit of a hassle getting back in the middle of summer, I'll hope for a Christmas that's at least a little cooler" said Leyland.

"I want to go home, I know I'll be comfortable there, but what about you Daniella? You look so discouraged, I can only imagine how boring it's going to be spending the days there" I say to her.

"It's the same old hassle, Christmas there is full of pomposity and falsehood from my parents towards everyone, even me, apart from having to look like a good girl at every event that takes place between these dates, I'll probably have to stay there and have a really bad time, but I hope you have a good time, especially you Chariot?" I walk over to my friend and give her a quick kiss.

"I hope you'll keep this as a souvenir of our time in Luna Nova, I think I've made an even bigger mess of your head" I say, scratching the back of my head as I realise I've suddenly kissed her.

"It's okay, I won't forget anything I've been through here, if I can I'll even bring you some news from the Cavendish family since I'm very close to them, at least in a social sense, but anyway, I love you both, I hope you'll miss me too" She even hugs us and cries, quite moved.

We continue packing, I'm not going to take much, since I'll be back here soon, just a few clothes, I already know that Mum's house will have everything waiting for me, so there's no need to fill my suitcase, so much so that mine is just a very small rucksack.
Parker doesn't have such a big suitcase either, hers is bigger than mine, but she won't have as much stuff, Rebecca's is quite heavy, we've finished the first one, now we just have to pack the others.

"Wow, Rebecca, you're going to take everything like that" said Daniella.

"I have to take a lot of stuff, I don't know if there'll be enough clothes in the house, apart from the fact that I might come back with something new, but anyway, your trip is like a car journey and you'll arrive, while I have to take a plane, beautiful, not just one, but two, remember that I live on the other side of the world and in the other hemisphere, otherwise it's easy" she said, finishing packing everything up.
