C. It was my first time riding on a plane by myself.

1. I looked inside my carry on just to see what was in there and found a

scrapbook that my sneaky best friends secretly stashed in there.

2. It contained pictures of all of us, of all the years we’ve grown

together and the wonderful, irreplaceable times spent with each

other.

3. At that moment, the “fasten your seat belts” light turned on, and I

felt a deep sense of regret and sadness, because I didn’t tell them,

didn’t express how much they all meant to me.

Conclusion

A. To wrap it up

B. Summary: I knew that it was the last time I’ll be seeing my friends, and yet I

managed to still not tell them how much I loved all of them.

1. It might have been my pride or my preoccupation with the long

journey traveling alone or something else. I don’t know.

2. And yes, one could argue that distance doesn’t matter, friends will be

friends no matter how long it’s been, and that there is technology to

bring us together.

3. But there’s nothing quite like a real hug, and seeing a smile in person.

No amount of cute emoticons in an email can substitute…

4. I learned that it is important to show gratitude and love to your

friends, because it might be your last chance. Especially if it’s your

last chance.

C. Close with Impact: So it was September 15, 2007, in San Francisco,

California, 16 hours after those last hugs, and I was alone.

BOW. DON’T SAY THANK YOU RIGHT AWAY.
