It's stressing me out and I miss all my friends who are already at school and I'm not quite sure I can handle moving eight hours away... so I looked back through your blog to when you were moving to college for the first time yourself. And I found your posts funny and incredibly helpful. Like, more helpful than I even thought they would be. I've been reading your blog since you did BEDApril 2009, so I read these posts when you first made them, and I know I appreciated them then, but now... it's hard for me to put into words how much better I feel now, knowing that it's okay to feel stressed and upset about leaving all my friends, and that it's okay to take ridiculous amounts of books JUST BECAUSE I CAN'T BE PARTED FROM THEM EVER (I feel very strongly about my favorite books), or to have anxieties in general about moving away and leaving. <br /><br />So thank you, Hayley G. Hoover, for making one girl's life a little bit better, and for helping her breathe easier, and helping her be maybe be a little bit less stressed out. It means a lot. :)Hopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15042051399322114243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2937874428494399399.post-41254436689252270402011-08-08T23:05:57.940-04:002011-08-08T23:05:57.940-04:00Hey Hayley,

I'm excited to meet tons of new people and to be independent, but I'm also very sad to be moving away from my family and friends and I’m dreading having to say goodbye. (i'm going out of state. adios Ohio) :( I decided to go back and read this blog post, and let me tell you, it’s been extremely reassuring to know that someone else had the exact same feelings and turned out just fine. I know I’m being a bit irrational, but I just wanted to say thanks for writing this blog; I’ve personally connected to it many times and it is always funny, interesting, and real! <br />-StephanieKlunkymonkeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00771121309987843903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2937874428494399399.post-25376073904442953262009-09-05T00:20:26.055-04:002009-09-05T00:20:26.055-04:00*siiiiigh* I fear that I am going to have this sam...*siiiiigh* I fear that I am going to have this same book problem when I finally go away to college.
