Time of endings or new beginnings?

A bit of a glass half full or empty statement, but I truly feel this is a time of closure and new beginnings for me. I am exchanging Rotterdam for Amsterdam, the city I always wanted to live in since I was 5 years old, but never did. The end of my student days are near. My first real job is now closer than ever and indeed I am very excited. My last weeks at my current job. Saying goodbye to friends that are leaving AIESEC, The Netherlands or both to build a life of their own. I am now writing the final paragraphs of my thesis, a years work. Speaking of which, I need to get back to that.
When Pruthvi left, 2 days ago, I told him I hate goodbye in all senses of the word. Endings are like beginnings, there is always something good waiting to happen. Nonetheless, I will miss him and all the other things I need to say goodbye to. In the end my glass is always half full.
