Friend from home

It's been so long since I've seen any of my friends from back in Crowell, but this weekend I'll get to see one of them! One of my best friends, Taylor, is coming to San Marcos with her mom to tour Texas State. I am not only excited to see her, but that she is considering coming her for college. In my opinion, she should move down here for college to get away from Crowell. She hasn't been able to travel much and explore new places, and I feel that San Marcos is perfect for that. In Crowell the landscape is very flat, dry, and boring. Here in San Marcos there's beautiful landscape with lush green grass covering the hills, something very different than what we're used to. Since I've been here, I feel that the environment has helped make me a happier person in general. I used to feel down in the dumps a lot, and I truly believe that the landscape of the town has that kind of effect on us. When she's in Crowell I can tell she is also feeling down a lot, and I believe that if she moves down here for school she too will start to feel happier. Although I want her to come here really badly, it will be nice to see one of my friends from back home. I've made friends here, but I feel like no one can ever take the place of any of my friends from Crowell. They are all so different and unique than any other people I've ever met. When we are all together we don't have care in the world and just have fun, so it'll be nice to reunite with one of my great friends.
