Sometimes I wish I could hide away. Looking for a place to getaway,getaway from all the heartache and pain that life can bring. I really don't wanna sound like I can't hold my ground,but everybody needs some time that they can getaway.Sometimes I wish I was invisible cause then no one will know where I am to ask me for anything cause i've given so much of me when it's a time for me to receive? Who's going to look out for me? You know I'm not superwoman and i'm not made of steel. I try my best to handle all I have to deal with it's not as easy as it seems and to think this was my thing. Now for everything I have I'm grateful But sometimes I want to get away.

Thanksgiving with my BF
This Thanksgiving I went to Natchez with my boyfriend and spent the holidays with his family and went to there family reunion. I left Wednesday around seven and arrived in Natchez at about 9. I thought we were kinda late to hang out and see the family but we was just in time for the fun. Everybody was all gathering around and laughing and talking about old times. I knew most of my boyfriends family and they knew me but there were a couple of people that I didn't quite remember so I can say today that I know mostly everyone. Well Thanksgiving day had arrived and we didn't get up and dressed until about 11 and went to go meet up with the family again. We all prayed and ate and then everyone just sat around and watched the guys play basketball. Thanksgiving was great and I had learned that I had alot to be thankful for. For life, family, friends, and a place to always go!!

Rough Draft
When you first come to college it is a very exciting experience that sticks with you for a lifetime. Staying on campus is also one of those exciting experiences. There are a few positive things and there are also a few negative things. Being away from home for either the first time or for a long period of time is what also seems to be the reason for that excitement. But that excitement sometimes decreases when college students actual realize how they are going to have to live for the past couple of months here on campus. The unhealthy eating habits, causing you to gain the freshman fifteen, staying up extra late causes your body to get use to unhealthy sleeping habits, and showering in unclean community showers, are all things that describe a college life. The college community showers are very disgusting, filthy and an unclean place to bath.
When I first came to USM, I was very excited because it was my first time being home for a long period of time. Although, that excitement soon decreased when I was told my new bathing place is a community shower with about thirty different girls. It was very unusual for the first time, but soon it became something I became immune to but not use to. The showers seem to become even dirtier and disgusting as each day went by. I dreaded each day to actual get up and take a shower. Every time you go in the showers there is always dirt every where, there is always hair every where, and there is no privacy any where.
The showers are made very small. When you enter in the showers there is a door that you enter in and there are three showers to your left. The shower doors are curtains that are hard to open and close. There is a part that you enter where you can put your towel, robe, soap and towel you wash with. Then there is another curtain that leads you to the shower part. The curtains are always touching and sticking to you. Therefore hair and dirt are getting on you and sticking to you also. The floor is aligned with stone tile that is always wet and dirty also from the shower shoes worn.

NO THANKSGIVING!!!!!!
This year I will be spending Thanksgiving with my boyfriend instead of my family. Although, it is sad I am really looking forward to spending our first Holiday together. Although, on the other hand I will be missing my mom, dad, and sisters, and not to mention my mom's home cooking. Thanksiving to me has always been a holiday where I could see all of my family members and laugh and talk about old times, but this year will be different. I guess with age comes alot of change I just pray not too much at one time...so Christmas I guess is my holiday that I am really looking forward to....because for sure I am really going home!!!

Y Me!!!!
Do you find yourself sometimes asking the question why me? If so your not alone because I find myself asking that same question all the time. Sometimes there are things that happen in your life that makes you wonder is this real, is this really happening to me if so why. Growing up I was taught in church that you should not question God because he knows whats best for you and that everything happens for a reason. But sometimes that isn't a good enough answer to go along with my question or to help me feel better about the situation....so I do, I question God and I look for an answer also. But he comes back and says that He is God....and that little phrase always gives me a feeling of peace. So remember for the ups and downs in your life trust God for he knows....he knows!
