Yet another summer is coming to an end, school is starting, the mornings are getting colder and everyone is falling back into the usual routine of their lives. Meanwhile, it's hard to not reflect on what we did over the last couple months. Me personally ? I've moved 6 hours away from my hometown to attend a state college I hate. (Obviously I am not going there anymore) I managed to get a new job and was only unemployed a couple weeks, and in this economy I think that in itself is a pretty astounding accomplishment. But even though I've been here since July, I still get painfully homesick. I crave the slower lifestyle, and everything I have become so accustomed to. It's fantastic to be closer to my high school friends and family, but I miss the friends I made at home. I don't think this place will ever be 'home'. Don't get me wrong, it's lovely up here, but it just doesn't suit me. It's cold, and different. But on a brighter note, I've reconnected with some old friends and made new ones as well. I guess like with all things I need to give myself more time to get setteled and start to find my groove in the crazy ways of these northerners.
SO here is to keeping my spirits up and plowing through the homesickness and making a name for myself up here. Because really it is just how you look at a situation, so I shall put on my happiest and confident face and show these northerners how real girls get down. Everyone knows southern girls are best ;)
