GR

In March my boyfriend and I moved to Grand Rapids. Every now and again we talk about moving back to Muskegon because we miss our family and old friends but the more I think about it, the less I really want to move back. We were not in a good spot when we were living near Muskegon. We were hanging out with a lot of the wrong people... doing stupid shit... Don't get me wrong, we had fun, but we weren't really headed anywhere. Living in Grand Rapids we have started over. I am set up to start at GRCC in September and Jack is working on a lot of stuff he never finished. We don't really know anyone here but thats our own fault because we haven't really taken the time to get out and meet new people. I'm sure college will help anywayz. We don't really talk to our old friends for a lot of reasons and for the most part that doesn't bug me. The few that I could actually consider good friends we are still in contact with.

I've been getting pretty crabby lately because it seems like everytime Jack talks to his mom he mentions not liking Grand Rapids or she makes a negative comment about it. His main reasons are missing family and not knowing the place. Honestly, I don't want to move back to Muskegon just because we aren't completely familiar with Grand Rapids yet. Yeah it was nice knowing where everything was in Muskegon and Ravenna but I NEED a change and until we get out there and explore we will be stuck in the same damn place all the time. Nothing will ever change and ........THINGS NEED TO CHANGE.

I really want to both be happy and I don't want to seem like a bitch for the way I talk about Muskegon but I really don't think I want to move back. Sure I miss it and I would really like to be closer to my family but I really think staying in Grand Rapids is what we need. Muskegon wasn't big enough for what I want to do. I felt trapped. Surrounded by the same shit different day.

I know I just rambled on forever but I just needed to rant.
