Life seems to have taken a quick and sudden turn. What I started to become familiar with has now has changed and I am back home in Blaine. I'm ok with this though. I've been given a wonderful, large space in my dad's house where I have combined a living room, studio, and bedroom all into one. My dad calls it "The Condo". Although there is still junk that should be moved out of this area, I have grown to love this little place of mine and even for a second considered never going back to Minneapolis.

I think it was last month when life sudden just, happened... Everything that had happened in the last year suddenly came tumbling on me and suddenly I had no more strength left to get me through it. Being able to finish my first year of college and move back home was probably the greatest thing that was able to happen. Not to mention that my dad opened his home up to me considering I have never lived with him before (at least not officially).

I now spend my days reading on the sunny porch, having many conversations with my wonderful step-mom, occasionally visiting old friends from the area, and sleeping. I know this sounds rather slow and boring in comparison to what others are doing, but I need this...

And there are also a small amount of other things that I need... most of which I am getting and slowly they're making life a bit smoother.
