I miss my family not the one im spending Christmas with but the one that I have built for myself because my friends are more of a family to me then the one I was assigned. My friends are all hundreds of miles away right now and all I want to do is go to one of my three closest friends and hug them and just cry because just so many bad things have happened recently I just want to spend time with the people I love especially right now Christmas is one of the hardest times for me because it feels like every Christmas the group of people I care about shrinks between death, people leaving, and people getting admitted into mental hospitals im down to two people I can talk to right now both of whom are 900 miles away I miss them all so much but Christmas break ends soon so ill get to see my family then because my grade is one big family most of us don't have amazing home lives so we became each others family and support each other 100% and are always there for each other
