Day eight

A moment, in great detail.
This moment isn't just one specific moment that happened one day, but it's a specific moment that happens a lot of the time. It's when I'm taking a walk, just listening to music that reminds me of good times (or bad times). I know it sounds really corny and stupid but I feel like I'm one with nature. It's really calming and relaxing for me but it's also really exciting. It's somewhere I can go when I want to be happy, or when I want to be sad or angry. No one else goes up there except for when my grandpa mows the grass so that it won't grow up and I can keep walking there. That makes it feel really intimate. I can look to my right and see blue mountains, houses, trees, so many fields and hills. I look to my left and see wild flowers, fence posts, an old abandoned house. Butterflies of all colors fly around me and, a lot of the time, land on me. More often than not there are two chasing one another. I see mice running around up there, I see baby rabbits hopping around with their momma, I even saw a turkey once. Every time I see a bird, I smile. I can see a grocery store, my house, other houses, but when I'm walking by myself, listening to music, and really paying attention to nature I feel really secluded. It's one of the few times that I don't care.

My favorite internet friend
Her name is Joanne, and I met her on a message board about seven or eight years ago. She lives in England and is around my mom's age (which may be a little weird). She definitely does not act her age, though. She has a daughter named Hayley who is about 18- I get along with her really well, also. Joanne is someone that I can talk to but she's really kind of a mother figure (which also may be a little weird just because I already have a mom). I'm just always reminded that she's looking out for me. Her boyfriend lives in "the states" as she calls them, but I can't remember where exactly- Missouri, I think. I'm not quite as close to her as I was at one time, but I still love her to death!
