"why don't you live closer?!"

Day 27:


A person I wished lived closer and why.








Well, as the story goes..I was raised in New Jersey for almost 10 years. While I went to school and had friends, they weren't the "life-long, never leave your side, be there when you get married, and be there when you die" kind of friends. So, I don't really...wish that they lived closer. I was in the 3rd grade..I don't even remember some of their names..

Family..I had lots of that ;)



I can't really wish one family member live closer over all the countless others...

Literally, they're countless. My mother is one of 12 children. Twelve children, ten of which are married. Those ten, each have kids. Sadly, I haven't met many of these aunts, uncles, and cousins. Not because we don't want to meet each other..but because they live in the Caribbean. Miles and miles and miles and miles away.

Where in the Caribbean?


Here..

There..on those two islands live the majority of my relatives on my mother's side.



Now, I suppose you can guess who I wished live closer..and why. My Trinidadian relatives.
