It's ok to miss something

 Lately, I've been missing my hometown. You probably won't know but I am from a place called Billingham, next to Middlesborough, and about a year and a half ago I moved to a place called Washington near Sunderland and Newcastle. I'm not saying I hate Washington and I wish I'd never moved but I do miss Billingham. It has things that link me there where I can't find anywhere else, I grew up there. I have my great-grandma there, who is literally my world. She misses us too, everytime we leave she cries and if you've ever had to go through that..it's heartbreaking. My nephew and niece are there who I've never really met properly, what kind of relationship is that?Barely knowing your auntie. I have my dad there, I love my dad to pieces. I really do and I only get to see him like what..once a month? What is that?! I have my bestfriend there, someone whose practically my sister. Someone whose stuck by me for ten years.
 In the town centre there's this bandstand thing and after school me and my little brother would go up the stairs and climb over the railing and stand on top of it and play tig. It was so funny. There's the forum where I spent many afternoons learning how to swim. My primary school, where I had fantastic childhood memories. I always imagined doing my work's experience there but its impossible now. There is also St Michaels RC school. This had some not-so-good memories but I still loved this place, yes the teachers and lessons were big piles of erm.... but anyway I made a really good friend there, we were so close and spent every weekend together. I moved and then she moved away so I guess it's good we had each other till the end! Someone who used to be in my class at this school recently got leukemia, we used to be good friends so I just thought I'd say get well soon wallsy!
  Although, I am glad I moved here. I've met two people who have became a nana and grandad to me. Some real family. I've made a group of friends who I would probably have lost my mind without. We're like one huge disfunctional family. I've learnt important life lessons. I've got a much better shopping range up here. I'm doing better in school, sometimes. My mam's a lot happier which is always a plus. And all together Im just having a really good time!
   It's ok to miss something, but just remember the good stuff and you'll be absolutely fine!

luv kt xo
