my dad thought I needed the high school experience, but he was a football player and was popular. my mom understood my frustrations with school and let me do running start.

My dad was valedictorian and my mom just had her horses and music during high school. Neither really understood what I went through during high school or the move to Washington.

your dad? valedictorian? I am having trouble imagining that, honestly. XD

Well with a graduating class of a grand total of 40 people. at most. plus they weighted grades and he had been taking "college" level math classes since his sophomore year.

wow, only 40? now that suddenly makes sense.

he grew up on a nut farm in a tiny town that nobody knows where it is in Northern california. Over half of his class dropped out his senior year.

>.< sounds awful. I would hate to live in the middle of nowhere!

It's a cute little town! And he loved it!

I'm such a city girl. I don't really appreciate the "cuteness" of small towns. it's good that he liked it though.

I love little towns!!! They are so quaint and wonderful! And you know everyone!

the fewer people there are, the less likely I find someone I really click with. I love my cities. I don't have anything against people who love small towns, but they're just not for me.

Okay so we can still be friends? And I just find it easier to communicate in smaller settings.

hahaha, yes, of course we can still be friends! <3 I just like to live in cities is all. Provo drives me crazy because there's nothing here.

Seriously?? There's so much more to do here than Sammamy!

well, in Provo itself there's more to do than Sammamish or Maple Valley, but in the surrounding areas of general Utah-dom compared to the surrounding areas of Seattle/Bellevue, there's a ton more interesting things back home.

I don't think so... Oh well.
