Hometown
I was filling out a form yesterday and had to write in my "hometown." I immediately wrote in Yakima, Washington, which is where I grew up and lived for 17 years of my life. But as I started thinking about it, I definitely do not consider Yakima "home." In fact, I pretty much hate Yakima. I still have family there so I visit from time to time, but I don't like it. I get so stressed when I am there. It is not home. Seattle is my home. I absolutely love it here. Where is your home?

hmmmmm home for me would be Bucks County, PA. That is where most of my family is and most of my friends. However, home is also Wakefield, MA since my heart and body are here.
I feel you. I don't ever know how to answer that question. With all the moving I have done, I am not really sure that I even have a hometown. I usually just default to where I was born. This runs right along with when people ask me where I am from. I usually just say I am from a little bit of everywhere, which is true! Though, of all the places I have been and of all the people I have known, I'd say Yakima is the only place that I felt "at" home and by far has been home to the the people in my life with the highest amount of quality. :)
