To my friends in Canada

Today is my birthday, I'm turning 19, I'm getting old, and shit. I did't make a huge party or something. I just chilled with 3 of my best friends, we drank a couple of beers, enjoying at the amazing view of David's house. In the morning I hanged around with Boi and then in the night a couple of smokes with Alexia, but it wasnt until i got home (Alexia told me before actually) and opened facebook when i saw that had 56 new notifications. Just wall posts. All about my birthday, almost all of them from people from the Cape.
I know that a lot of you only knew about my bday beacuse of facebook, and to be honest its ok, I know probably like 5 or 6 birthday dates of people that I have known all my life (including my family). Anyway thats not the point, the thing is that all this messages made mi think about the cape again, and I miss it. And not literally the cape or the bay. Theres not a thing in Glace Bay, and it wasn't the sea, the lobster, the oxy, the brook, Tims and backtown what made this time special, it was the people from there. My friends in GBHS, my friends in Sydney area, the internationals, etc. All that people that made those 5 month SO special. 6 people specialy.
It was fuckink hard to face the fact of that probably I'm not gonna see all of you in my entire life, it was harder that saying good bye to my friends from Mexico when I was leaving. Beacuse it wasn't a good bye forever, it was a see you in 6 months.
And now I'm back in Mexico, with all my friends and my family, 19 years hurting in my back and 56 notifications on Facebook. Happy. I learned more than a second lenguage (and slang b'y) in the cape. And theres nothing better than home. But a big piece of me will be always on the Cape.
THANK YOU ALL

Love Carlos (not cas)
