So I went up to Detroit with my mom and sis to visit my Aunt and her family. The bus ride up there was horrible but I saw a lot of different cities on the way up there, Cincinnati, Ohio was the best looking out of them all. This was my first time out of the south so it was a bit of a culture shock for me. I wasn't used to seeing so many places and people...there were too. too. many people and that really got my anxiety going through the roof. When we finally reached Detroit, I was worn out mentally and physically and I just wanted to take a warm bath and go to bed.

The night after that, our Aunt woke my sis and I up at 3am to put up her christmas tree.. while she sat on the steps giving us marriage advice and singing christmas carols...She then proceeded to make us follow her around the house so she can take sleeping pictures of everyone. She crazy.. I like her.



Anywho, while we were there, they showed us around the city, took us shopping, and we went to the casino..well we all stayed in the hotel of the casino while my Aunt and Uncle went out. The hotel was beautiful, and we had a nice view of the skyline.



The bus ride back to Montgomery was also terrible but there was this one drunk guy on the bus that made the trip a litttle more bearable. There also was a really sweet guy that looked out for the three of us and another girl and her son. He even offered to buy me something when the bus made stops because I wouldn't get off the bus lol. Yeah..so, apart from having to smell the bathroom throughout the entire trip, and having to be bunched up with strangers, everything went ok and we made it home safely.

In other news, I have a date on the 28th with a guy I met at school, he's handsome but I barely know him. More than likely, I'm going to cancel it and I've already prewarned him about it and apologized in advance. Once someone asks me out, I freak out about it because I automatically assume I won't be good enough lol. I have to be really good friends with someone before going on a date with them, it's near impossible any other way because my anxiety rules my life.
