Today will end sadly, because my housemates are leaving (permanently) for Spain tomorrow in the early morning, so I will finish the day off by saying, “Adios,” and wishing them good luck in their life without me. They have been the best housemates a person could ask for. I still remember the argument we had recently about mopping the floors – they felt guilty that I was doing it, and tried to insist that I stop and let them do the mopping instead! Before they leave, I must go out and buy a few things – a goodbye present for them; a card to wish them well; and a box of tissues for myself to wipe away the tears when they leave.
