Today's the last day of filming for Avatar: The Way of Water. Throughout the past years of filming, we had all grown so close to each other and gained many memories that we'll never forget. But everything comes to an end, and this was it. Before I could really think about this, I forced myself to get ready for the day, distracting my thoughts. I finished packing the remaining items into my luggage, handing it to my dad to put in the car.

I then headed downstairs for breakfast, meeting the others. Breakfast was quieter than usual and I think that's because we all knew what was coming in the next few hours. We finish up eating, savoring every moment we can with each other, before heading out and to the volume.

Entering the volume, I'm met with the busy production life working to make this film possible. I take in each sight, as I don't want to ever forget it.

"It'll be a sad day, but trust me, we'll see each other again soon" Sam says walking over to our group.

I walk away from the group, trying to take in everything one last time. Heading to the prop room, where things like the spears, knifes, clothes, and other random things the designers made, I look around and see my character's section. Walking to my character's section, I look through all the designs that would be on the big screen. Seeing the knife that I, my character, would use, I pick it up, feeling it started collecting dust.

'I guess no one's been in here for a while' I thought to myself, turning around when I heard the door opening.

"What are you doing?" Jamie asks, walking into the room, vlogging.

"Looking...totally not planning on stealing anything" I joke, point the fake knife at the camera.

After a few hours of filming, we huddle around James and the camera crew to see if that final recording was the end.

"And...that's a wrap! Thank you guys so much!" James exclaims, signaling the end of filming. We all cheer, hugging each other, and a few tears were shed.

After celebrating the end of filming, we all headed our separate ways to our rooms to finish packing. I was just sitting on the couch in the room, when Jamie texted our group chat.

1st Place
Beach!!!!

Getting up from my place on the couch, I quickly head to the bathroom. Fixing up my appearance, I check the time, pack my backpack, and head down to the lobby. Once in the lobby, I'm met with Jamie, Bailey, Trinity, and Duane. Immediately seeing them, my mood becomes more happier, and not sorrowful. After waiting for the rest of the group to arrive, we quickly head to the beach.

With the beach being an hour away, we spend that hour making the most of our limited time together. We sang our hearts out for most of the ride, getting weird stares from the cars driving beside us. As the beach comes in our view, we start to calm down a little more and gett our stuff together.

Once we were on the sand, we walk around, looking for a spot to relax and the questions. After walking around for a bit, we finally find a spot, and set our things down as Jamie started recording.

"Alright, we just finished filming Avatar, how are we feeling?" Jamie asks, beginning the interview.

"Sad" Trinity answers first, her face reflecting her answer. We all agree with her, with the same somber looks on our faces.

"What are you going to miss about LA?" Jamie asks, carrying on with the questions once more.

"The people, without a doubt" I answer, not even thinking about it. I think about this new found family I made during Avatar.

"The food for sure!" Duane answers right after me, making us let out a laugh. I remember the times where we would be the ones getting lunch for the rest of the cast during filming.

"Both of those" Filip answers, taking time to think. We all agree that this was the better answer.

"Okay okay, how was it like bascially growing up on set?"

"Fun! We're really just like a family now, but I'll miss you guys" Trinity says first, with all of us agreeing and promising to talk everyday to each other.

"What's a memory you'll always look back on from these past few years?"

"Our sleepovers" Jack replies without hesitation. I think back to the many sleepovers we had, the movie marathons and the pillow fights that would happen in those nights.

"Our beach days for sure" Bailey answers. Reminiscing on the days we were off, we would stay at and around the beach for the entire day and not get back until night.

"Alright, well, that's it. Everyone say goodbye" Jamie says, concluding his final interview during filming.

He turns the camera around and says his goodbyes first, then turning it back to us. We all have glassy eyes, tears that could fall at any time, but we reluctantly say goodbye, for the time being.

We make sure we have each others numbers and social medias, before we all hug each other. The hugs were tighter and more emotional as we won't see each other for a long time. Pulling back from the last hugs, we start to walk towards the parking lot, where our parents were waiting for us. We give each other one last look and goodbye, before we all slowly start parting ways.
