we've been talking about them importance of place in one of my classes, especially in the context of globalization- that 'place' sortof conquers all. For me my 'place' has dramatically come out since arriving here (Chi-town represent!) Since it is difficult to express Chicago, I rather express the people from it. All the people who have been a part of my formation of me seem to now more than ever express who they each individually are through my actions. The limes between who I am and who my people are now are blurred. If i were at home amoungst these people I think I would only see how dissimiler we are, but away from them I forget where I end and they begin. This also makes me whish they were here- so my personality would have some validation, my Carly-crazyness, my outgoing KtTside where I need to know everyone, my thoughtfull kind Janeside, My caringTim side, my horney Sam side(sorry there sam), my bohemian Franny, my deep and alternative Babs, my chill and pissed off JohnB, my excentric emily
my clam anne, my wrestling annie, my sensitive anna, my sporty Marcus, my dancingdork Tyler, my noncaring yet talented Bill, my cuddly dana, my laughing steve sam, my artistic christine, my persistent gregg, my breakdancing khouse, explorer Jason, goodtimes kamari, geeky aaron, gogetter and hardworking charlie, musical ritwik, funtimes edgar, enthusiastic elizabeth taylor, sweet jicela, hilarious yorus, southside pride jono, northsider lynn you all just need to make your way here, I miss you, and christ almighty I need you!
