Befriending People

Right now, I am up in Danville, CA visiting some of my really good girlfriends from college. Let me just say, I am in HEAVEN. I love it here and I love seeing my friends. I even extended my trip four days. But what I love most about being up here is seeing my friends, and seeing them with their friends. All of these people have known each other for their whole lives and so they are like a huge family. But they aren't the type of people that have to know you for ten years before you can hangout with them. I came up this weekend and fit in automatically. They didn't care that I am not even from Danville, they are just really nice and cool people that are interested in meeting new people. It is such a relief and I love it.

It is just so different because when I moved to Bakersfield I felt like I was the new kid that no one wanted to hang out with because I didn't go to pre-school with them. Everyone I went to junior high with were completely rude about the fact that I was a new kid and no one gave me a chance. It wasn't until half way through high school I that I found people that didn't care that I hadn't grown up in Bakersfield. I just wish that people could be more open and nice in Bakersfield. Really though, people that live in Stockdale estates and Old Stockdale are complete bitches and made my first few years in Bako hell. I don't understand why they are so mean and think they are so much better then everyone else?

Anyways, I am thoroughly enjoying my trip up here. I was actually only supposed to be here four days, but then I talked to my dad and told him I didn't want to leave yet so be told me I could stay for a while longer. Jerie was really upset when I called her, but whatever, she'll get over it. The weather here is perfect, the people are amazing and it is absolutely gorgeous! They live in a kinda mountainous area, but its like a city at the bottom of a mountain. There are trees and hills every where and I really want to live here. I know just want to grow up and make a lot of money just so I can live in Danville. I LOVE IT HERE. It is simply amazing and I am so thankful my dad and Jerie let me come.
