Finale ( Virginia! A whole different degree of living)

Well we have moved to Alexandria, Va and are trying to get use to this change. This area is very beautifully, quiet and relaxing, so far. I can't say we are staying in a great place but its not too bad. I was surprised by the amount of Latin Americans in this area which is not a bad thing. I am actually excited about experiencing all the different cultures in this area, I wonder what type of people I will meet here or make friends with. Being near D.C. is great but it has helped me realize how much I miss NY and will always call that city my true home. Hopefully I will find my way back there some day. Below is a picture of a park in Rochester, NY. It was one of the few parks I visited quite often and anyone visiting this site should visit this city. Not a great place for the young and active Rochester was a nice place to live and in some way I want to go back. Upstate N.Y. I believe is a great place for a road trip since there is so much to do that can fill up a two or three week vacation. Canada is right there so that is just more fun. To some degree Rochester will always be a place I can call my second home.



Recently I found out a friend of mine who I went to the University of Rochester with had passed away. We weren't really the best of friends but she was someone who I kind of felt close to only because we grew up in the same neighborhood. At some point in her youth she was caught in a fire and somewhat scarred to a degree. Although she was a nice person I always felt she was troubled with something either because of the accident or something else. Either way a light has been extinquished that should have been allowed to burn bright and I'm glad to have known her for the short time she was here. She was somewhat quiet and reserved at times but also very brave and rarely backed down from an opportunity to have fun while in school. I also never told her how sorry I was for a mistake made in the past but the last time I saw her we were on good terms so all i can say is rest in peace Keisha.
