Today was the 23rd of October. The day we were leaving Australia, for good.

A month had past since dad told my brothers and I we were moving to Canada. Worse month of my life for sure. It was so hard to say goodbye to everyone, all my friends, family, the place I grew up in, but today was the hardest of all.

Beep!! Beep!!! Beep!!!! Beep!!!!! Beep!!!!!! I slowly opened my eyes and turned off the alarm my dad had set the previous night. It was 4:45am. Our plane left at 8:00am, but as usual we had to be there 3 hours beforehand. I grabbed the blankets mum had given me to use for last night and pulled them over my head. I didn't want to leave. Why can't I just stay with gran I thought to myself. I had already asked dad that question, he said that this was a family thing and that I had to come. I heard the door slowly open and my mum tiptoed in to wake me up.

"Sweetie?" Mum whispered.

"Mmmmm" I mumbled.

"Come on honey it's time to get up. We've got a new adventure waiting for us." She whispered excitedly.

I pulled down the blankets that were covering my face and just stared at my mum. Does she seriously think that this is going to fun?!

"Come on sweetie, out of bed!" She whisper yelled, then left my small, empty, pale yellow room.

I rolled over and grabbed my phone, which was on the floor next to my blow up mattress, charging, along with my iPad and laptop. I pressed the home button and instantly the screen lit up. I squinted for a few seconds, then my eyes readjusted to the bright light. I saw that I had a tonne of messages from my three best friends, Yasmine, Elijah and Ben. They were coming to the airport with my family and I so they could be with me until the very last second. I scrolled through all the messages, I had some weird friends, but I was just as weird a them. I felt my eyes begin to water, I was really gonna miss those three weirdos. I replied to them, then made myself get up.

By 5:30 I was dressed, I had eaten breakfast and done a light layer of make up to hide my horrible under eye bags. I went back into my empty room and picked up all my chargers and technology and put them into my carry on bag. It was a 21 hour flight and I got bored so easily, so I prepared for the endless boredom of the plane trip. At 6:00am, my mum, dad, three brothers, our neighbour (who was dropping them off at the airport cause their car had already been shipped over to Canada) and I had gotten into our neighbours car and were off to the airport. I watched as we reversed out of the driveway, my small house slowly become smaller and smaller. I was going to miss this place, the wooden floors, my pale yellow walls, the toilet door with the lock on it, the dead grass in the backyard, all of it. I felt my heart drop to the pit of my stomach, goodbye home, I quietly thought to myself. We then turned to corner of our small lonely little street. Goodbye forever.
