Went on a trip to see my adoptive grandparents. It's a multigenerational household of them, their kids, and grandkids.

Thought I'd be in a for a bad time because I hated my hometown while growing up. If you weren't a part of the in-group, welp. You're done for lol. And the area is so small and limiting... But I came here for the people, and because I didn't want anymore regrets with not being close to family.

Ended up being a lot cozier than I thought. I was reminded of the bits of my childhood that were good. I reconnected with people I never thought I'd see again. And although I still think the area sucks, I still adore the people I got to know while growing up here. c:

(Hmm that sounds like a joking sentence, but I genuinely mean it lol. Would never recommend anyone to live here, and I always recommend that people leave. 💀)
