Cause I don't ever wanna leave the gang without least sayin' goodbye. . .

I went to a band concert earlier today. It was for Robin's homeschool group or something. We left at like, 4 PM and didn't get there until about 5:30. It was in Grand Rapids which is about and hour and a half away. And let me tell you, there is nothing(From what I could see) Grand about that place. I'm not really a fan of big cities to tell the truth. Just don't like all the traffic and busyness and stuff. I liked Mount Pleasant, though. But its not a big city; just an average sized one, although I'm sure it seems big to most people who've lived in Vestaburg all their lives. Which brings up a subject I debate with myself on: Do I prefer living in the city or in the country? There are certain aspects of both that I like. And there are certain things about both that benefit me the most. Some things I truly miss about living in the city are from when my mom and I used to live on Kay Avenue and in the Isabella Mobile Home park. I always loved to hear the races over at the racetrack every Friday night. They always reminded me of times since passed when I was much younger and I used to go there almost every Friday night. They were comforting... And benefits for me of living in town were being able to rollerblade and skateboard everyday. And to ride down to the corner store and buy pizza and pop. To just skate around and watch people. And of course, living where I was, I didn't have to ride the bus. I got dropped off and picked up everyday from school. Of course, you should see my enormous tardy list from the mornings. My Grandma wasn't always the most punctual person. I was usually only about ten or so minutes late, though. But living the in the country is just...pleasant I guess. Hardly any traffic to keep you up at night. You can hear just the most smallest and trivial sounds that you would never hear in the city. You can see the stars at night...and it can be just so beautiful sometimes. But then again, sometimes cities can be quite beautiful as well...even moreso than the country and stuff. And if you take my view on it, I receive little actual benefit from living in the country. I can't rollerblade or skateboard. Bike riding can be quite tedious at times...nothing is ever going on. Bored out of my mind... This is NOT the direction I thought of taking my post tonight. I was actually thinking about what I might post while we were driving home from Grand Rapids. I might save that for tomorrow, though. Be warned, however, I might begin to rant or rave or just have some kind of, emotional breakdown or some sort. I really need to get this crap out. Its really starting to bug me. *shakes funny feelings off for the moment* And the feelings mostly stem from the dreams I've been having recently...just...horrible. Absolutely horrid. -DDG Day: 123 [A-B-C...its as easy as 1-2-3. A-B-C, 1-2-3, its you and me girl!] Days 'till: Last day- 7? (Yet to be determined, there's a party going on that day and I might be able to skip the last day before break...but my mom's not sure yet.) Christmas Day- 9 Christmas Eve- 8 Early presentry openingith- 5
