PITTSBURGH

I miss Pittsburgh! I don't know why, or what provoked my sudden nastalgia for the land of chlorinated swimming pools and grumpy steel workers, but MAN, when I got home from school and got on my computer, I could barely control my fingers as they speedily typed the fair old city into Google Images. I miss my suburban neighborhood and my pre-school and my friends and my house. (We had a yellow house, sort of like the one I live in now, but more victorian-y.) It's just so strange because people generally feel the same way about Pittsburgh as they do, say, Cleveland; a little boring, industrial, too cold in the winter and too humid in the summer. But whenever I think about Pittsburgh, I feel warm and comforted and at home...I think of sitting on the porch in the snow with Sam and a bottle of syrup and making our own delighful sugary snow cones. Or playing Beanie Babies in the living room with Sam and Aaron and Sarah and the Holmes'. (Our neighbors.) I remember our family being so perfect and so happy. When I look at old pictures of us when we lived there, we just look so much like a family...so together and cohesive. It's weird, I've honestly never realized how much I loved it there...I guess I did, but was never really aware of it. But even so, I think that if I went back today it wouldn't be the same as I remember it, just because everyone's so different now. I don't really know why I'm posting this, I guess I just feel like we're all having to grow up and we're not kids anymore and I'm realizing how much I miss being a little kid, when everyone was happy and I was always warm and safe.
Anyway. Not sure how to end this! ...I LOVE YOU GUYS A LOT. <3

This is a picture of picture of Pittsburgh, incase you were stumped...

Hey guys

Hey Guys!

Elaina's right. We don't do this often enough anymore. SO BEGIN.
School hasn't been so bad this year. I like most of my classes and I feel like this whole new schedule could work to my advantage eventually.
I'm in love with all of you -- and I think we need a Hodgepodge meeting PRONTO to debrief on things like Scotland and New York and stuff. Cause we need to get on the same page.
I'm out of cool things to say. Here's some pictures.

Sittin' in Seatac

THIS IS HAILEY FROM A WHILE AGO
hollaaa (that was for elaina)
Welll.... I had a four hour delay in the Seattle Airport this morning and after I ate some breakfast and bought a journal I discovered that I had only wasted a little more than an hour... so now I'm just doing random things on the computer, facebook and such... a little bit of my common app but yeah... I decided I should post something since I haven't in a long time.
Sophia- I am very sad I didn't get to see you before I left because now I won't be able to until school most likely or a little bit before. I miss seeing you.
Elaina- I don't know what we were thinking not hanging out all those days we were both here. We must be crazy. Anyway it was nice to see you and just chat.
Fiona- It was also very nice to see you with elaina. I can't believe you are becoming a famous model. I'll miss you while you're in New York... again.
When I get back on the 17th we have to have like a double sleep over or something- just hang out for awhile before fiona leaves again. I like hanging out with guys... wierd. Anyway this is just a quick hello. love you guys. I saw the most beautiful sunrise in my plane today.. it was incredible, breathtaking, fabulous, fantastic, gorgeous, spectacular, just overall amazing. I'll miss you guys while I'm gone and send some post cards maybe.
You're the best friends anyone could ever ask for and I am sooooooo sosososo lucky to have you. Thank you for being in mi vida.
Love you lots
Hailey
