an understanding

I'm really liking it out here in sodak. college is going well. i have met some great people. well. . . mostly girls but there is nothing wrong with that. it makes a diff. cause i am in an all girls dorm. i'm lovin every bit of it. well i guess not every bit cause there are a few girls who just bicker way too much. other than that its totally rockin and quite the experience.
dad was in town last night. her rode the bus here and i met him down on main street and walked with him to the motel. he came to pick up the car cause i am going off my seizure medication so i cant drive for six months plus the amount of time it takes me to dwindle down off of it. so i wont be able to drive until next april. around my easter break i do believe. that totally sucks but its not as hard now because i have made some friends that i can mooch a ride off of and stuff. at first i was really ticked off about that but i guess its not too bad.
anyways so dad was in spearfish with me last night. we took a trip to walmart to get some things for the car because the check engine light was on. that was totally not cool i went back from billings with it on. i was so glad i made it back here. a four and a half hour drive with it on. but anyways dad put something in the car and the light turned off so hopefully that will be good. i hope he is all safe.
him and i went to one of the two chinese resteraunts in this small town for dinner. we were the only ones in there. i suppose it was around 8:30 when we got there. good food though. the two of us talked about whats going on back home and here at college for me. that meant a lot to me. i wanted to cry.
dad talked about how erin has been talking to bobby a lot (the kid i hung out with and almost dated last christmas). he said she has a crush on him which i already had guessed. he is a year older than me. ick he better not touch my little sister who is only a freshmen in high school. that was interesting to talk about. he also told me about how mya is doing and how she had to go back to the hospital for another CT scan for tuberculosis. i pray that she doesnt have a bad case of it or will just need a little bit of treatment. i miss that silly little girl.
what i miss the most about home though; as i figured out when i was laying in bed the other night. i miss being able to go up to dads office and talk to him whenever or find mom around the house and talk about how the day went and whats going on in life. most of all i miss having my biggest, little sister next door to me. i loved being able to talk to her at any time. we would just sit in our rooms before we went to bed and talk about whatever. i loved it! i miss it! i miss my family.
i guess life brings you diff. places to let you find out about how good you had it where you were. i love here im not saying otherwise. but i do miss home. i miss my family and friends and especially jon (he isnt really back home but not too close).
its interesting to see how life takes you.
