Leaving for home was a tough decision overall. I have just finished my freshman year of college and when I heard that financially I wouldn't be able to afford school next year I realized that being home this summer would be my best bet at getting ahead of my debt.
But then my mind was clouded at the time, thinking that Spokane and my family is my home, and its not. Sadly I was mistaken. My home is where I belong and don't feel judged and pushed down everyday, and that's with my new family and friends in Chicago.
I hate change and I think most of us do, and its extremely hard to embrace, but I realized tonight that if we don't fully embrace change then we wont be living, we will just be staying in the shadows of our real life.
It is time to leave for good, and in one week I will be saying goodbye for more than just a few months to my dear hometown as a kid- Spokane.
I will be saying goodbye to my past mistakes and hello to my future and my new home in Chicago. I can't wait to embrace the change and the new memories I will make and the fun times I will have.
I will be back one day, but right now its time to push off to a new life, and to a new home. Its time to start again and to figure out what my life holds for me.
I will let you know as I continue how it goes!
