Static

Home is where the heart is.... or is it. I am beginning to think that my heart lies on the open road. I find myself searching for the next big adventure. I miss feeling like I am seeing things for the first time. Being home has been a huge shock. Seeing friends has been a lot of fun, but it has also been super sad. A lot of my friends have gotten lazier. It is tough to see close friends with such big dreams, but they are doing nothing to try and achieve them. They are sitting on the side of the road watching cars full of opportunity pass by. Hopefully I can help motivate some of them to go out and get what they want from their youth.

Salt Lake is nothing like St. Thomas. I find little things daily that remind me I am somewhere new, somewhere sterile. Today I was at the store with my dad, and everything was PERFECT. It was overwhelming. Everything on every shelf was turned the right way and stocked fully, and the supermarket didn't smell like salt fish and dust. In St. Thomas shopping in stores is completely different. I miss the laid back atmosphere in St. Thomas. Nobody has any patience here.

 Time should never be wasted, but one should fill time with impatience.

It is a wasted day to wish you were somewhere else-

Way back home

Wow. What a whirlwind it has been. I have honestly never felt so much like I am everywhere at once, yet nowhere at all. It has been super crazy for me being home. It is funny how much you think you are in the loop, then realize you aren't even close. It has been a weird return. I found out I grew quite a bit while on St. Thomas. Everyone is shorter than I remember.

It has been an interesting few days. Seeing friends and family, meeting new people in class. It is fun/sad to see how much some have changed, and how little others have. I hope that I don't lose sight of my sense of adventure or progression, now what I am home. Maybe it is the weather, maybe it is the familiar faces, maybe it is just that i am too damn assumptive. But since being home I have never seen so many dead people, people who hate where they are at, and aren't willing to do anything to change their situation. My time away has given me so much motivation. There is so much out there in the world, why be content with only seeing and meeting familiar things?

The weeks to come will be crazy, but I am ready. Hopefully i can shake this damn headache i have had since being home. And wish me luck in possibly buying a car today!
