It's been real.

I don't mean to this to be a cheesy post, but it might turn out as such.

This last week I have been in Wisconsin, visiting my family. I don't want to leave! It has been so much fun and I got to see some old friends and my brother got home from the Army so I got to hang out with him too. I also went to my brothers baseball games, which took place at my old high school. It just all took me back. It took me back to the days of skipping school to go get frosty's...or really anything at all, with Gina and hanging out in david and david's basements..while they drank and I sat there strictly for the company. I miss the life here so much. It was so nice to go out on a walk and not hear a single car on the road because the roads aren't busy, it's so calm and I miss the big yards and the green trees and green grass all over the place. I miss being surrounded by people that are so genuine. There is nothing better than going somewhere where people want to see you. Where when people find out you're in town, you feel kinda popular and well liked. I miss being the innocent mormon girl that people watch their language around, I miss being an example to people and not being the same as everyone else. Oh and when you're here, you don't even bother doing your hair after you shower, cuz the humidity will do what it wants with it anyway and you can hang out in a t-shirt and people have no idea if you're pants cost $20 or $100 because it simply doesn't matter. It feels so good to be here, living this oddly quiet life and I am so sad to have to step back into the fast pace life I live. Where I have a routine and eat the same foods and have to go to the gym because I can't just take my dogs on walks 3 times a day. But even though my life isn't the simple one and it exhausts me sometimes, I have to say it's a dang good one and I am very grateful for that.
