Never been away from home without my family for more then a week at a time. Last year during the college app process I made the decision to "mind the gap" and take a gap year instead of head to my freshman year of college. This was my last picture of the infamous PDX carpet with my Chuck Taylor's. This was the second time in my life I've boarded an airplane alone, and it was probably the happiest/scariest/nervous moment of my life so far.
