One Month Left: Once a Boy, Now a Global Citizen

I cannot believe I leave Paris in one month. Where has the time gone? The amount of entertainment and site seeing that I have done these past few months are astronomical. Within my first month I said I had enough memories to last me a lifetime. Well, now it being my 3 month anniversary living here, I have about 3 lifetimes worth of memories and stories. Three months ago I made a list of places I wanted to visit, about half of that list is crossed off. I figured that I have enough places to visit on my list to go to one place each day until December 16th (my last day in Paris). Reading all of my posts, emails, and Facebook status' are one way to experience what I have been doing, but nothing beats all of the pictures I have taken and hearing the stories directly from my mouth. The level of maturity I have endured is astronomical. I now understand the meaning of life and my purpose. My hopes and dreams are within reach, and within the next month my adult life begins as I close the chapter of my adolecense young adult life. I am now, a global citizen.
