Well that's a picture of the city I now live in. I still don't know if I like it or not. but I have gotten more comfortable with it I suppose. I don't feel as lost as I did when we first moved here. So I suppose that maybe I will eventually grow happy here. I have to admit that I can still picture my life living in the same small town all my life near dear friends. (aww Sarah we cant make our kids like each other so we can hang out all the time if I stay).

So the last couple of days have been pretty good. First day my dad and I painted my room. Well most of it I still have to paint some design on it. Ill have to admit I got very frustrated when we tried to go get paint. Not to mention WalMart didn't have peanut m &m's. I'm not sure what that was all about but my mom tried to get me to get the smarties instead. *sigh* they just aren't the same.

Any who the day after that I did something kinda crazy. I went and explored the city. Well the metro and some of the city with my new friend Patrick. It was a lot of fun. It was raining all day but it was still fun. I have to admit I kind of enjoyed the rain. Well after figuring out some of the metro we went to this mountain in the middle of the city. Yes! I said it right a mountain on an island in the middle of the city. This isn't a hill like all the "mountains" in Missouri. We went swinging in the rain and walked around. It was pretty ... actual grass and trees and such. So that was a lot of fun and Hopefully Patrick and I get to hang out some more and get to know each other more. He actually kinda reminds me of Lizzy in some ways. (I LOVE YOU LIZZY... NO OFFENSE TO PATRICK BUT NO ONE CAN REPLACE YOU ) Oh I cant forget to tell you guys that the guys who sold me the metro tickets tried to sell me kids tickets lol. why do I have to look 12. Oh well I had to laugh at that.

Then today my mom and I took the metro to get to this thing I had to go to at school. The school thing sucked but it was nice to hang out with my mom. We road the metro and talked and then we walked on a road with a bunch of stores. I actually knew some of the stores so that was cool but a lot of them are High names stuff. Not so much Magali's bag of cookies. After that we hoped back on the metro to my aunts house. It was nice to go hang out with them there. I haven't gotten to see my aunt really since I have gotten back. and now I'm here

So all and all ... I might be able to live here... who knows only time will tell but things are looking up now and well hopefully Pat and I will be better friends and I will make new friends. Ohhh... and school will hopefully go okay. I'm a little nervous about that. I don't know why. I am excited though... I'm kinda excited about my math class. lol I know I'm a dork.

so any who I love you guys
