From Louisville to Denver

One of my fellow classmates in my FYS class, Hannah Luvisi has her own blog, which she titled "From Louisville to Denver." When I first saw this, I got all jazzed thinking that there was somebody else from my small suburban Colorado town just 10 minutes away from Boulder and 45 minutes away from DU that would be in the same class as me. It took me a while to figure out she's from Louisville, KENTUCKY--not Colorado. Loo-ah-vul. Not Louisville.

If nothing else, this time stuck at home while all my friends begin their college lives has given me plenty of one-on-none "me" time. As an only child for 12 years of my life, I had always been good at playing by myself but as of late, I had kind of forgotten how to do it. So yesterday, after taking my dilapidated bike into the shop, and wandering around Target, spending too much money, I got myself some lunch and went up to a tech center up on this hill overlooking all of Louisville (MY Louisville) and enjoyed the view. Voila, this picture. Louisville is a simple town, but a cute town. Good restaurants, good schools, nice houses, a street fair every Friday night during the summers... Though somewhat plain, I've always considered myself a resident of Louisville, even though I live in Erie (a 15 minute drive from Louisville). I've gone to school in Louisville all my life and all my friends live there so I practically live in Louisville. It's a good place. I will miss it.
