Home Sweet Home

Hello KIDDIES!!!!  

     I decided to surprise my mom for easter by coming home from college and I got the reaction I was hoping for. She was so happy to see me she cried. It wasn't until that moment that I realized how much I really had been missing my family. For the most part I'm a very independent person, so going off to college really was not all that hard, but even the most independent person can long for home. Which happens to me when I get stressed or when I see others going home to be with their family a lot. I am glad I had this opportunity to come home for a holiday, especially since I won't be coming home for the summer months but living in my own place. It will be hard at first but just like in college eventually I will get used to the distance and understand that I am moving on with my life and that they will be there when I need them, but I do have to live my own life.
      In that same note I am proud of my mother she went back to school herself and will be graduating soon. I on the other hand have a few years to go. More debt to get, but you know what I would gladly take that debt any day because I know by going to college I will get a better job then with just a high school diploma. I am glad of all the choices I have made up to this point in my life. Don't get me wrong you can get some good jobs right out of high school, but I don't think I would be as happy as I am now if I hadn't have gone to college. I wouldn't have met my wonderful boyfriend, or made such amazing friends. Or even had an opportunity to travel. This January  I plan on taking a trip to Ireland which has been my dream since I was a little girl. I don't know what it is about Ireland but I have always had this strong feeling that I have to go there, that some day I will go there, and this J-Term I will make it happen! Even if it means more debt it will be a trip I will never forget. This is the prime time to travel abroad while I have the chance.
         If any one is reading this blog I hope that at whatever point in your life that you are happy to be who you are, cause you know what I am happy that you are who you are. I don't know you, yet I know that people are their best when they are just being themselves. I hope all my readers out there if there are some are not taking themselves for granted and are enjoying life with their friends and family. So my challenge of the day, is be your self and keep your family close even if you don't talk to them anymore or they happen to not be around, at least give them a little thought because everyone comes from some where. Have a nice night Kiddies I'm off to visit dreamland!
