There’s about 6 days left in my first college Christmas break. Can’t believe a month has pretty much gone by– it feels like yesterday I was cramming for my first finals, shopping for gifts, and seeing cousins for Christmas. And now, I’m about to start my second semester of college.
Honestly, I’m a bit torn. I mean there is absolutely nothing like college, and I absolutely love it. But being home has been refreshing. I’m only about 20 minutes away from home while I’m in college, but I’ve missed this place. “Indepimpdence”, as I call it, is home. It’s where I’ve been all my life.
I know I have to go back to school, and actually I’m quite excited to go back. But I’m a bit saddened that I have to leave the place where I grew up. I don’t think I fully appreciated being here when I actually was living here.
However, now Jewell is also my home too. It is also where I belong. Now I can only learn from my mistakes and take in every moment I have there.
