Miss Independent

If I had to describe myself, absolutely one of the first words that would come to mind would be Independent.

I'm ok being on my own and figuring things out and making it all up as I go. I've been the new girl for so long, that I'm growing accustomed to the feeling of having lots of acquaintances or new friends, but no real or close friends.

Now that I'm planning on staying for a while, I am excited by the people I'm meeting.  And I'm meeting them everywhere. I truly love the quote from Anne of Green Gables:

I have been living here for almost 3 months now, and I'm getting used to it.  I rarely use my phone for directions anymore, and I can help tourists figure out where they are going.  I'm making friends and working on a show and just carving out a little life for myself here.




But there are some days that I get pictures or texts from my family, and I'm so homesick that it hurts.
