The next list in Listography is "List your closest friends." I'm going to skip this list in an effort to not hurt feelings by leaving people out not because they are not my close friends, but because I have a bad memory and might forget to list you (If you've been invited to read TWIMO take it upon yourselves to know you are on that list). So the next list is "List Places You've Lived."
1) Ashland, Ohio: Born there, moved away at the age of 5 and then parents returned during my freshman year of college, so technically this is where I call my hometown now, although I don't really feel connected to this place as home for various psychological reasons.
2) Perrysville, Ohio: 1990-1997. Completed kindergarten through 7th grade.
3) Gahanna, Ohio: 1998-2003. Completed High School
4) St. Louis, Missouri: College 2003-2007. Wish I had taken advantage of living in this city. Instead I was studying, uptight, attached to a boy in Ohio and scared to go outside (it was the #1 most dangerous city that year, but really I think other issues were at play on my part).
5 1/2) Florence, Italy: Sept. 2005- Dec. 2005. Pretty amazing experience to live in Italy for 3 months although at the time I was really cold and sick of the 11 people in my program. In hindsight a great life experience though.
5) Savannah, Georgia: Graduate School 2007-2010. In my opinion some of the best years of my life thus far.
6) Atlanta, Georgia: Present... Waiting for this chapter of my life to really take off.
