Week 20: Young at Heart

The first thing i'd do would probably just lie down in the grass and gaze at the clouds. I miss being young. I did so many fun things when I was younger. I might say my life all went down hill from 5th grade...but really I feel like life only became boring starting at 7th grade. I remember playing frisbee and soccer outside for a good five hours and not getting bored of it. At my old house in Metamora was where I grew up for 13 years of my life. My sister and my friends and I would go discover "bridge to terrebithia" in which was a random rocked beautiful spot by the creek in our woods. It was really beautiful and in the middle of no where. Then next to it was a cliff like hill that we'd climb up. you had to be careful and hang on from tree to tree as you're trudging up it. Then, you'd reach the very highest peek. It was wonderful to sit at the highest spot in the area and to watch the birds fly above the clouds and to look down on the water in the creek splashing upon the rocks. We would climb these treees that had been knocked over and inbetween hills, so if we would have fallen..we'd probably have broken our little, fragile, bones at about a 9-12 foot drop. I miss being able to just hangout with my sister and friends all day long outside venturing the country life. It was kind of like we were in the plains.. there were hills surrounded by us then in between these hills were the woods, creek, a few neighbors, and like 3 big cornfeilds. It was near the old apple orchard, in which my bffs gpa owned, in metamora. Jess and I enjoyed making videos of absolutely ranging from something- to nothing. Jess and I were really random and I miss being able to play outside and not get bored or hot. Also, we had a swingset that we'd sit and play on for houuuurs. I miss being young. When I have kids I want them to have everything that I had when I was young. My parents are truely the best parents ever and gave me the beeeest childhood. I do remember wanting to be older though once or twice.. but for the most part it was always an entertaining time so I didn't complain much.
