Home Away from home ? What does that even mean? It is somewhere you go that feels like home? To be honest no one will ever know :(. But honestly, in my personal experience that is how i feel everyday..
"Home is where the heart is". This was the one thing that stuck to me from my 8th grade homeroom teacher, of course inspiration wise. Those words stuck to me honestly, and I just always kept that in mind. Even to this day being halfway done with my freshman year I remember them.
But.. what do you consider home? School, your job, a family members home, or your own..
For people like me who have more than one home it is truly hard to pick. I consider only two places my home.. Poland and my home in New York City.
