I don't know half of those songs. I always associated Celine Dion's All By Myself song to my feelings after moving, but the loneliness goes away once you make friends.
You're going to make such wonderful friends!
Ruha, I'll leave you a mix of music before I go. It is part of a big sister's job to edumacate her younger siblings in the music of yesteryear. -G.
