Dear Mom, 

     I ended up moving to Michigan the day after I last wrote to you.  So it's been almost a month.  I haven't been writing much, but that's because I'm always busy or I'm too tired to write.  Like right now.  I'm very tired, but I can't go to sleep and I'm tired of reading.  I'm in the upper peninsula right now.  I'm with Bear and Janey's parents.  Janey has work so she couldn't come.  We'll be here for five days.  I drove all the way here.  I wanted to though.  And yes, I drove across the five-mile-long bridge.  I feel so sick; I don't know how much longer I can write. 

     I left for a little bit, but I'm back now.  I went on the most amazing tour of the historical lighthouse down the road.  You'd have loved it.  You would love it here.  It is so peaceful and calm.  It's not too hot.  It gets chilly, but that's okay with me.  The sights are worth it.  The camp is right on Lake Michigan.  I wish you could see it.  I bought three books at the lighthouse.  I said, "I know I'm a nerd." But what other way to learn than through a book that you would actually enjoy?  Aunt Krissy said that I need to start paying her $50 a month for my phone.  There is absolutely no way that it costs $50 per person.  There are like 7 people on the plan.  It's probably so high because she's still paying off the new phones.  That's not my problem though.  She probably thinks that now I'm living with someone that has more money than her, she can suck money out of me.  Absolutely not.  I'll get on my own plan, even if it costs more money before I would ever feed into her selfish names.  I just cannot stand any of them.  I do not miss them.  I've gone way longer than this without seeing them before.  What is there to miss?  I know they're your family, but I don't claim them as mine.  I wouldn't even want any of them to be at my funeral.  The day I moved to MI was one of the hardest days of my life.  I cried just as hard as I did on the day you left.  Saying goodby to them was the second hardest goodbye in my life, with you being the first.
