I have no problem being born a small town country girl and dying a small town country girl. It's where you go and what you do in between that determines your worth. So if you're worth anything, go somewhere and do something.

*****
I moved back to Boston last September after spending four years in Northern California and one in Sweden. Though it's taken some getting used to, the stationary domesticated life is an adventure unto itself, and one which I'm enjoying... for now. I have a great apartment that I share with my boyfriend of seven years, our handsome cat, and a steadily growing collection of cacti. I work in the burbs at a residential program for teenage girls with eating disorders, depression, oppositional behaviors, etc; I work with the girls during the school day as well as in their dorm. It can be stressful but I love it! I'm starting my master's in education this fall at Simmons College, and I can't wait to get back on the other side of the classroom.
Dinero no me importa. Exito no me importa (pues, un poquito). Solamente quiero ser feliz.
