Six years in Malta

Stuart Cobbe from Florida, USA lives in Sliema and blogs at studawg's space:

Well another summer past, another year in malta. I can't believe I've been here for 6 years already. I went to the roof of baystreet friday night, and it just brought back all those memories that have a double sense to them, of being an eternity ago, and yet only feel like being just yesterday. I remember being in middle school playing football with such idiots, and of friends lost and gone.

School starting, and it'll be the usual Verdala purge of the old and bringing of the new. I want to meet the new students, but I don't want to get attached to anyone; I leave in under two years for sure, and the last thing I want to do when I move to the states is bring baggage with me...I'm really scared, for once in my life. Scared of moving to the states, to a place where I know I'm happier, and scared I won't live up to both my own and other peoples expectations of me...
