as of right now, i'm so ready to get out of here.
i have lived here for 18 years.
i've gone to the schools i'm supposed to.
i've attended the same church.
i've lived in the same house i grew up in.
there has been no changes of scenery.
nothing has really changed in my life.
i am so all set for the next chapter in my life to unfold.
honestly, there are people i'd rather leave behind here in arlington.
leave them behind with what i thought of them,
with their image i have formed of them.
but then there are those people i'd love to pack up in my suitcase
and carry them around with me, always.
unfortunately due to the reality, this cannot be done.
i have to realize they have their own thing to rock
and their own places to change.
i understand both of these things have to happen.
forgetting and remembering.
but i am so ready. so ready.
bring it on, memories!
