Third Blog Post of the Summer - Dezarea Jones
Well guys I've been in Wisconsin since June 11th and it's now the 14th. That means I have only been here for couple of days. I have a feeling that I need to go home, but I'm forcing myself to stay. I don't know if any of you have ever felt that when you go on a long trip with people you have only seen twice in your life. I honestly thought I would have an amazing time up here. I honestly just feel like I need to go home. Maybe I wasn't as ready as I thought I would be to leave home for a long amount of time without my family. I've talked to a few friends and they think I should come home, but I asked Trevis. Trevis thinks I should stay up here and experience new things. What is experiencing new things if you can't enjoy it because you have a feeling that you need to go back home? Maybe someone will read this before I make a decision on what to do because any advice is helpful. Anyway, for the time that I’ve been here we have done nothing but sit in the apartment and watch tv. Today though, we went to Cole’s (my 2 year old cousin) sports practice. My aunt did the activities with Cole while I sat and played with Lucas, my aunt's friend’s kid. Lucas wanted my aunt after 20 minutes so I took him to her. We swapped kids and I took Cole to do the last activity. Cole was definitely not happy when I took him so he threw a fit. Finally, my aunt comes out there to do the last activity with Cole. Lucas and I go sit in the car with the air on because it is really hot up here. After Cole’s sports practice we go to McDonald’s and of course I get chicken nuggets. Now we are back at the apartment. Cole and Lucas are taking a nap and my aunt just went to take a nap. So, that means I am the only one up so I guess either make another blog post, read the book and do bullet points, watch heartland or think about what I should do. You will probably know my choice in my next blog post! Please give advice if you can!
Hey Dez, I just read this post and I wanted to say that, I've never felt that way before but something similar. I remember that whenever I want to go out in the middle of it I immediately get the feeling that I need to go home. It's homesickness I guess haha. Sometimes on vacation I miss home more than anything. Which isn't really much to say since I stay home most of the time unless it's school. Maybe next time you feel that way think about the new place you're in at the moment. Think about what you're experiencing and what you've seen that is new to you. Take some moments in as if it's the end of the world tomorrow. In honesty- a lot of people have different ways of finding ways to get rid of it. But that's what I do. Maybe it'll help next time. I'm just now wrapping up all this summer assignment stuff. Since I already have most of my comments typed out. I wonder what other fun things you did in Wisconsin. Can't wait to hear the tales in school! I hope you have photos too! - Tatum Tornkvist
