I don't know about you, but it feels awful to be OUTSIDE of this. I know that everyone not on the Coast feels this way, but it just feels strange to me to not have anyone here in LA that is going through the same thing I am.

It's strange for me to have to continue my every day life when all I want to do is go home and be with my family.

I still don't know if I've even grasped all of it.

i know exactly how you feel. being in orlando everyone is just going on with everyday life and the consensus is "oh yeah that hurricane sucks, arent you like from mississippi or something?" its almost too much to deal with.

it was almost bitter sweet to find out that tim's house made it through perfectly fine except they have a bunch of trees down in the yard. its like he can sympathize with me but he still has a house whereas i'm still in the dark whether or not my parents have anything to go back to so i guess he really doesnt understand how i'm feeling right now.
