Good bye Bakersfield

Well, tomorrow is the last day of my Winter Break adventure and I go back to school on Sunday. Let's recap my Winter Break, eh? Even after many things went down.

My family. You know, I'm so very thankful for having a family like mine. For allowing me to be who I am and letting me have this freedom and trusting me with it. For having the patience with me of coming home late when I go out. For letting my best friends sleep over when they want to randomly come and spend the night who live far away from here. You know, my family has been the same since I left and honestly, I LOVE THAT. I hope they never change because I love coming home and feeling at home like I used to. I love being able to feel missed because my family is always hanging around me and it's kinda cool. I love them. Even though we argue about my family wanting me to come back home and just study at home, I know they want the best for me. There's nothing more I'd love than know my parents care for me the way I do. Like I said, I love the feeling of being missed, it's a good feeling. I LOVE THEM! I know I'm going to miss them when I leave again for weeks at a time, but what's better than coming home to know that my family's got my back. [:

The Bestfriends. That's the name: Bestfriends. One word. One love. Okay corny. Hahaha. But really, being gone for so long and never getting together all together at the same time sucks! But during this break, I think I saw every single one of you and it's really awesome because I missed all of you. After hanging out with you guys for these past few weeks, it made me really remember WHY I missed you guys all these months. You guys really are my bestfriends and I'm going to miss you again. With the exception of me being a little itch-bay to someone (WHO I'M ACTUALLY GOING TO TRY TO BE NICE TO) I really miss hanging out with all of you guys. Seeing 3 movies in a row. Staying up until 4 in the morning trying on make-up. Unexpected visits from best friends far away. Until the next time I come home, right?


Christmas, New Years. You know, These aren't commercial holidays. These are holidays for a reason and with a reason. These are times you spend with your families. Not solely to hang out with your friends. Don't take for granted these holidays because there may be a time where a family member may not be there who you care about so deeply like a family I know (Rest in peace Mr. Tucker). I just hope that people realize that it's not about getting gifts, or giving gifts, or having bright lights outside of your house, or even finding the right person to kiss under the mistletoe (Who really does that? Hahaha). It's about sharing and spending the time with family and to relax at home. It's about helping those who are less fortunate. It's about getting to know people on a deeper level. It's really about the birthday of Jesus our Lord. So, did you celebrate what Christmas is really about?

WELL, it's a deep blog, I know. But something to think about. Can't wait to go back to school. Buahahah. I miss everyone. AND if you live in my dorm, be ready to hear some yelling and get ready to hear about some things that are going to happen because once I face my roommate about her little SEXCAPADES she's probably going to get back at me with some type of prank but you know what, that's okay. I've got tons of ammo to get back at her with. Bring it on baby...bring it on.
