three more days...

I haven't seen my family for three months, but it feels a lot longer. I have never lived away from my parents before, so this has not been an easy experience for me. However, in three days I will fly to Charleston, South Carolina (where my brother goes to college) and finally get to spend time with my family. I am really looking forward to this weekend because it has been long since I have spent time with my entire family at the same time. My parents got divorced when I was nine years old, so the entire family only gets together in special events such as graduation. Also, my siblings are all older than me and are already in college so I only got to see them in Thanksgiving, Christmas, and during the summer. I am also looking forward to this weekend because I believe this weekend will help me get back together and will motivate me to do better in school. Althought I am 18 and should be able to do things on my own, I sometimes need the motivation of my family.
