Its now the first of may and i graduate the 22nd. on june 26th-july26th i will be at a pre summer freshman course 6 hours away from my home town, so i will not be able to see her then. once i return, i have to leave again august 18th permanently for college.
Basically my question is, is should i end things before the summer course?

Okay, I'm disagreeing with the others who have posted (even though I'm inclined generally to trust advice from those posters), but I'd say yes, go ahead and break up. From what you've said, you really already have broken up, both by your agreement and in your mind -- you're just delaying the effective date of the break-up. That puts you in a strange and uncomfortable limbo where you've broken up in reality but haven't broken up officially. Sometimes you just have to pull the scab off.
Stay friends if you can, not "just in case" but because you want to stay friends. But if you've already made the decision together to break up, you're not doing each other any favors by putting it off.
