Hello Michigan. It’s a cool place I guess, but I don’t really feel like I belong here. My sister Tanya somehow talked me into coming here.  A month ago my ex-boyfriend Peter broke up with me and I’ve kind of been in a bad place. But, I don’t really feel like talking about it with people here yet. I still feel so hurt by the situation. It was just so sudden and unexpected after dating for five months. Tanya has been worried about me and I just didn’t really want her to worry about me anymore. It sounded like it would be nice to escape Illinois for a little while and come here, but I don’t know if I’m going to get along with all these people.

My roommate Olivia seems cool, but she is happy all the time, and it’s kind of annoying. The whole group seems to be pretty happy to be here, maybe there is something wrong with me. I know I have issues I need to work on and maybe Tanya is right, maybe this will help. I guess I’ve never been to Michigan before so I should give it a chance and I should give all these people a chance.
