Home: Sometimes it's where you belong

If you don't know me, some background information might help you out for this one. I was born and raised in Marion/Johnston City. I've always lived here. I wanted out though so I went to school at Southeast Missouri State University. It's about 60 miles from home so it's far enough to make me live on compus and live my own life, but it's also close enough for me to come home whenever I want. Thank goodness for that. I lived on campus for the fall semester and the first month and a half of second semester. Then, I came home for the last weekend of February and had a blast. This was a huge contrast from school where I sat in my room alone trying to get people to want to do stuff. It never worked. I was by myself all the time (unless I was in class) and I hated it. The people who were supposed to be my friends pretty much failed miserably at that. So after a lot of crying, screaming, and thinking, I decided to be a commuter. Lucky for me, I only have class three days a week. Unlucky for me, I have a class at 8am and have to leave by 6:15 to make it down there on time. Have I ever mentioned that I'm not a morning person? I want to smack myself every time I get in the car to drive down there, but it's definitely worth it. I get to be home with my family and spend time with my friends who I love to pieces! This is where I belong, and I'm so glad I'm back!
