I'm going home, to the place where I belong.

Yesterday started out as a typical day. Wake up, turn off the alarm, get breakfast. While I was eating I was hanging out on Facebook and Myspace, still slightly disappointed that a few friends I was hoping to see weren't coming out tonight. I saw a friend from North County had posted a blog about how he hadn't seen a lot of our old group over break and I began to miss them all even more. I thought I'd adjusted out here. I guess I have. Homesickness is no fun though. Yesterday was one of the worst cases of it I've had in months. I got on the bus, listening to my iPod and all my songs kept bringing images of North County to me. I come to my house everyday, I hang out, I sleep here, I eat here, my friends come over....yet it still isn't quite "home". I don't know. Maybe when a place and it's people are so deeply rooted in your heart, you never quite get over being far away from them. It's 30 miles...and I really shouldn't complain. I've had friends move from Chicago, Iowa, and even one that moved to Tennessee and mine was just moving counties. Maybe I was just very attached to everyone and everything about my old county. It makes it even more amazing when I see them, but the downtime pretty much sucks. I feel better today, but I'm really hoping to go back home tomorrow for a visit......

Peace,
Danielle.
