So glad to see Sammy in a new forever home, the OP's story was very similar to when my parents allowed me to raise a baby Jenday Conure when I was 12. Everything was great for a few year, then high school hit and suddenly I was always busy -- school, friends, boyfriend, swim practice, and my time home was not enough for him. I had to rehome him, too.
That's the reason I never recommend anyone under the age of 18-21 to get a bird. There's so much change going on in your life then and most students simply aren't prepared for the time-commitment.
