well, since nothing impactful (which apparently is not a word) or life changing ever happens here, i will just say that moving here in the first place has been a pretty big impact, even though it's not super recent.
boston (sorry for using this picture again)
obviously, if i hadn't come out here, my life would be totally different! i'd most likely be going to community college in my hometown-something i still hate even thinking about ever having to do. i'd probably have a new group of friends. i wouldn't have fallen in love with philly, new york and boston. (well ok, i was already in love with new york) i'd probably have a job somewhere that i wouldn't enjoy (even though some days are like that here...). i wouldn't have learned how to live in the snow. and even more things would just be way different!i needed this year off. and even though i HATE it so much of the time, i am still glad i did it. and when i think about the fact that i'm leaving in 2 and a half months, i actually get really sad. not about leaving my aunt, uncle, and cousins; but just leaving Philly, and the east coast i guess. i love how close everything is to each other. i mean, new york is less than 2 hours away! D.C. is 3 hours away. it's cool to know you can go pretty much anywhere whenever you want! (even though we don't, but if it was up to me, or if i wasn't living with my aunt and uncle, we'd go somewhere every weekend.)
i'm already thinking about doing an internship out here (Philly or NY) for a summer or even another year. just as long as i'm not living with family! haha! (immediate family would be ok though) :)
i've learned a lot about what i want and don't want in life. in my marriage and in my family. it's crazy living with my aunt and uncle. like, really. i won't get into any details though.
so yeah, moving year has been the most impactful thing in my life recently. and really, everyday i learn something. so it's not just my decision to move out here, but actually living here everyday has been an impact on my life.
p.s. sorry i've been slacking a little, especially with the 30 day picture thing. but with having the internet on my phone now, i barely take the time to take my computer out to use it anymore! which is probably a good thing. i've been pretty productive this week! ;)
