This weekend as i'm sure all of you know was family weekend. My parents were able to come up and we had a lot of fun. We went to the game and out to eat Saturday and then we went on the rafting trip with Base Camp on Sunday. This is when I really got to thinking about how much I don't miss being home. I love my family and I do miss them I swear. It's just time for me to become who I am going to be the rest of my life. I'm from Charlotte and I didn't realize how different my life is because of it. Most of my friends that I have made here at WCU are from small rural towns that I have never heard of. In Charlotte i'm a statistic, another face in the crowd. I want to go somewhere where I can be somebody and make something of myself and i just dont see that happening in Charlotte.
On a lighter note when my parents came up for family weekend they brought me four of my guppies so now i have fish...i love fish. They always seem so happy and bubbly, i wish i could be like that all the time.

My family weekend was good and bad.
My parents got here around 12 on Saturday and we went to the football game, which was good. I was so excited to see them. Then we left the game and went to downtown Waynesville. It was so nice, it reminded me a lot of Boone which is close to where I live. Then we were about to decide on where to eat for dinner and me and my dad got into it over something silly. It was terrible and he drove me back to the dorm and I told him to drop me off and he left. That was the bad part. It is rare for all of us to get along and it was so perfect up till dinner. Something just had to be messed up. :(
But as some people know I am transferring next semester. So seeing my parents this past weekend made me miss my family, friends and hometown even more. I am not going to get to go home till Thanksgiving and I know these next four weeks are going to be tough. But I am just going to have be strong and get through it.
Dude my parents definitely were NOT here for the whole family stuff. I'm from raleigh so i havent seen them since august and i wont see them until thanksgiving in a few weeks D: It's a really weird situation ya know? Idk.... i guess i miss them. sometimes im glad to be so far away..
