Today I am trying one of those movie scene things. I am sitting in Barnes and Nobles blogging. Only there is a problem in the movies there is no annoying teenagers talking really loudly in front of them. I mean I am just reassuring myself that my life is no movie. Any ways the reason for my post today. It is the day before Thanksgiving. I am really ridiculously sad. I have missed thanksgiving with my family before but I am ridiculously sad to be missing Thanksgiving and Christmas with my family. This is the first year I am not living at home for all of those. I know it is part of living away from home but damn I miss hating going to  Aunt's and spending Christmas with cousins we never see. The crazy running around and getting dressed up. but I miss the spending time with my family. I miss my siblings. Elissa will be moving away soon. she is a sophomore only a couple more years and she won't be at home either. I am glad that life is going and we are doing our own things but I really miss them! I really miss the dynamic we had last Christmas. Its just hard I guess. I am counting days till we head home on December 24th. I can't wait to see them.
