New post?! Whoa!

I don't post a lot. Honestly, I totally forgot about my blog. But today as I woke up from the sound of shattered glass (my roommate's mirror broke) and couldn't fall back asleep, I was reminded that I have one week left until I go home for a month. ONE WEEK. A lot of people are excited about break. Me, well I have mixed feelings about it. I am excited to see my family and my best friends and go home to my little town. At the same time, I'm sad to leave New York and everything that is good here. I live in the perfect location, I am surrounded by everything (Pinkberry is one block away!) and well, let's be honest, Pennsylvania is boring. Don't get me wrong, I love my hometown. But compared to the city, there is nothing to do. Another things is, my friends. I don't want to leave them for a MONTH. That is a long time especially since some of them I hang out with 3 or 4 times a week. Another thing I don't want to leave...yoga. I NEVER thought I would get into yoga. But I have and I have fallen in love. I take classes 3 times a week downtown and I absolutely love it. It is so great to exercise and work and relax all at the same time. It is amazing what yoga can do for the body. I don't want to leave that! Also, church. I JUST found a church. (Literally two weeks ago..) It is such a great place and it fits me perfectly! I don't want to leave when I just found the place! And the last thing I am sad to leave...Our Time. These past few months, I have been volunteering for Our Time every week. I love seeing the kids create and write and be so confident. I was not confident at the age and it warms my heart to see them each week write incredible songs, plays, or poems. I look forward to Our Time every week. The kids just mean so much to me and the fact that I have to leave that for a month makes me really sad. It isn't only the kids, it is the other volunteers, too. Some of them have become my closest friends in the city. It will be sad not to see them and work with them every week. So this is my last week. Today is my last Tuesday yoga class. Tomorrow will be my last small group. And Saturday...my last Our Time. I know it isn't forever but a month to me seems like such a long time! It was a rough semester, I will be honest. But lately it has been so good. I love where I live and the people I am blessed to be friends with. It will be a long month away from all of this. See you later New York.
