One Week Remaining...The Good and the Bad

I leave a week from today. Where did all the time go? The weeks here have flown by.. I have finals tomorrow, friday, and monday, however it is impossible to take them seriously.. All I want to do is enjoy my last moments in this incredible country. Today I bought some picture frames and printed some picture of me and some Greek loves to give them as going away gifts. It will be very difficult to leave them. They will be what I miss most about Greece. I wish I could bring them all home with me!!
What I will miss about Greece..

My Greek loves 1st and foremost,as already mentioned
Gyros
Crepas
The beaches and weather
The shopping
The laidback attitude
The unconditional love of the families
Bars being open until between 4-9am
University parties
The tavernas
The ocean
The mountains
8ball
Silver dollar and Boss
Wabbit Hunting
Walking home from an night out in the daylight
Walking everywhere
It being normal to be 20 min late for everything (I"m really good at that)
Navarinou Square
It being ok to stare at everyone

The list is endless... I would be rambling for days if I tried to list them all

What I won't miss..
The lack of air conditioning
Having prepaid phones
Not having a dryer
The buses
The constant protests/riots

What I can't wait for at home:
My family
My friends
Taco bell
Subway
My truck
My jetski
UWEC
Working at Applebees
Babysitting my boys :) :)
