Just Feeling Lonesome...

So this North Carolina trip has been great! Lot's of fun hanging out with family. But it just so happens that none of my family members I'm around right now are my age. They're all either older or much, much younger. My parents have decided that for this particular trip- no electronics are allowed. (Excepting of course my camera and getting online to post on 'Welcome to High School.')

I can't even look at my phone, can't listen to my ipod (even when no one is around), can't use Skype, and absolutely cannot get on Facebook.

Okay, so maybe I don't mind the Facebook thing that much. 'Cause I don't like seeing what other people are doing without me. The phone and Skype situation is worse though. I feel lonely. And when I feel lonely, I'll typically text, Skype, or call one of my friends. But up here, I can't.

My ipod is the major issue. Music is what keeps me going most of the time when I'm feeling down; and I don't even have my music...

I know the obvious Sunday School answer for this one- "God is with me!" Those obvious 'Christian' answers drive me crazy, but I ought to pay attention to them. Most of the time, as silly as they seem, they're true. I think sometime over the next week I'm just gonna sit outside and have a little chat with God. A literal out-loud conversation. Even if to anyone else it may look like I'm talking to myself, I don't care. I'm just feeling kind of lonesome and I don't know why. It's about time I talk to one person I know who will truly understand...
