Nothing's Gonna Change My World

Home

To be perfectly honest I feel like I couldn't be happier to be going home tomorrow. Lately I feel like I just can do no right around here. I feel like everything I say is taken the wrong way and people are jumping on me for the slightest mistake. I am also glad to be getting away from all of the hustle and bustle of this year for a few days. I am starting to really miss home and I am having trouble feeling like I belong here anymore. As I noted earlier this year, that may be a good thing as college begins to come to an end.

For the most part I like how my family is nowadays and it will be good to be around them. I love Thanksgiving and I feel like it is an underrated holiday, even though it is technically a lie in our history books. I like using this time to appreciate where my family came from and where we are today. We have been through so much together and we are closer because of it. Yes at times I hate what has happened with my father and that I am part of a broken family, but in the long run it has made most of us stronger and more appreciative of what we do have. I love being able to spend another holiday season with my Oma since I never know when it will be our last. I love seeing the little ones enjoy these days the way I used to. I love seeing the way my brother is finally growing up and turning into a person I can really respect. Yes these days are never perfect and things will most likely go wrong but I guess that is the fun part of life that we all need to learn to appreciate, especially myself....there is a lot of things I need to put in a new perspective.

I am also thrilled to spend part of the holidays with Matt's family again. This will be our third Thanksgiving together and its kind of exciting. Sometimes I am hard on him and hard on us as a couple but I really wouldn't have us any other way, except maybe a little closer together, and I enjoy falling in love with him a little bit more every time we are together. I cannot wait to go on our mini trip on Friday and just have some much needed alone time away from everything else. Away from those that are too involved and away from those that judge us and do not respect for what we have. Away from all the responsibilities that drive us everyday.

Tomorrow will be the beginning of a great couple of days!
