Wondering....

Hey all you bloggers! My name is Erika and I'm 18 years old. I live in Iva, South Carolina.  I am sure a lot of you are wondering exactly where that is.... well let's just say if you get to Anderson, you have about 30 more minutes and you will be heading straight into the middle of nowhere! But its home! I moved here from Hendersonville, North Carolina about 4 weeks ago and I will be attending Clemson University in the fall. I felt like starting my own blog because I have so much to say and keeping a journal just seems like something a little kid would do so instead I'm doing it this way!

I have a best friend named Katie and I love her to death. She is all that I could ask for in a best friend even though we fight and have our ups and downs. I still love her with all my heart and don't know where I would be without her . But she lives in Hendersonville and I live in Iva and we just saw each other this weekend but it already seems like things have returned to the way they were. She lives her life and I live mine. I feel trapped in a world where I'm the new kid on the block AGAIN! I don't understand why I can't stay in one place and be happy there.  Of course don't get my wrong I love Iva because I'm a small town girl and pretty country but I feel stuck in between and I can't get away. I know I'm going to college but I still need some freedom and stability. I need to know that the people I depend on are going to be there but it doesn't feel that way. Girls, why do we let guys get in the way and then come rushing back to our girlfriends when it ends badly?

Anyways.... I can't complain too much because I have had an amazing life and I couldn't ask for better parents. My mom and dad are the best and love me through everything that I have done too them. Which is a lot.... I'm a teenager. And I have an amazing brother even though we have 4 years between us we are pretty close even after we fight over something whether it be important or totally ridiculous. My family is an amazing rock on which I can lean.  I love them with all my heart.

Well that's it for today!
Thanks for listening!
