(this post is kinda rambled but deal with it... It is MY blog)
I wish I didn't have to miss out on ENP. I also wish Jane didn't miss out on ENP for a week along with missing out on getting to know the EE2 kids. But I am happy I got to know her well. She's really cool...and incredibly smart. This past week I've grown to know her more then just a loop teacher. She's a mentor to me. I'm inspired by so much she's done. And she's given me so much life advise and everything. I've shared a lot with her. More then just a mentor she also a friend. I trust her, a lot. It usually takes me a while to trust someone with just about everything. Jane has taught me so much this past week, but that's to be talked about in a different post. Jane's gonna make a really good mom one day. I mean she took really good care of me. She wasn't overly annoying like most people are when you are sick. She also was usually able to read if I was "lying" about being "okay enough". (by lying I mean she was able to tell if I was pushing my self to much (another thing I learned from her)). But yea, Jane is AWSOME! I'm really gonna miss her!!

Before Jane and I headed over to the airport we stopped at spivey to pick up Read. Jane also filled him in on everything.
On the way to the airport, I was supper excited to see everyone, but extra excited to see Hannah. When we go to the airport Jane and I were swarmed by everyone! It was VERY overwhelming for me. Jane sensed and Told me just to sit. So I'd did. Stephanie hanged me a card and a little gift from everyone! ( If any of you read this, I love it! You guys are truly the best and I'm so happy I got to meet ya'll!) Addam gave me an ENP shirt and I feel like others handed me things as well, but I really have no idea.
As everyone calmed down I stuck with Jane. Partly because I was feeling really dizzy, partly for a last sense of comfort (I mean she was really the only one there that I felt really knew what was going in with me), and partly because I am really gonna miss her. As everyone started to head in, Kimmi, Aledia, and Isabell came over. They sang, danced and one of them played Ukulele to "their" song for Jane. It was super adorable! Love them! But While listing and watching, it hit me that this is goodbye. It also hit me that Hannah wasn't there. That I hadn't even said bye to her before she left for ENP. That I really wasn't gonna be able to say goodbye. It sucked!
Hannah was our (the vet group's) "Mamma Duck". She taught us so much. And she was really funny, and cool. I missed not being around her this past week. Hannah was just as cool as Jane! She also "saved" me! She made the doctor at Chiang Mai Ram give me the fluids I needed. She was also there on Sunday night when I woke up in pain. She also was there to make sure I didn't just eat cookies when I did eat the first 2 days. Lastly she let me help her in a surgery! I'm really miss you Hannah! And I'm super sad I never got to say bye or Thank you!

So back to the airport. As soon as I got in Jane got me a wheelchair. I'm guessing the day had caught up to me because my legs couldn't stand any longer. Sitting there I looked at the group. I looked over at Addam and then over at Jane. I Looked at everyone else again. Then I caught Jane's eye and had to look away to prevent my self from making a fool of my self and crying. Eventually Jane started to say goodbye to everyone. She gave hugs to people from the vet group, then she said her goodbyes to her group, the plight group, and then to me. As soon as she gave me a hug I lost it. I made a fool of myself and cried. I really didn't want to leave Thailand. I didn't want this trip to come to an end. I didn't want to say goodbye. And I still don't. I don't wanna to go home. It just all hit me when Jane said goodbye. After a few minutes I regained my "cool". Then it was time to say goodbye to Addam. I didn't feel like a fool for crying when Jane left anymore, because a few people had the same reaction when Addam left. I was sad to say goodbye to Addam too, I mean he is one of the reasons I am on this trip. He is the one who told me that I'd be able to raise the money. It was just a sad hour. However, it was also very exciting to see EVERYONE but Hannah :( again!!
