Tortellini Are Not Aquatic Animals

So today is my last day here in Lexington SC. It's kind of an odd feeling with leaving and all. I've always been a gyspy at heart, and in fact somewhere down the line I do have some Rom in my heritage. But throughout my travels so far, Lexington has remained my "home base" so to speak.

Part of the reason I've not left for extended periods is because, well, I'm young.
17 to be exact. It's a little hard to leave town and lead a transient lifestyle when you have yet to finish high school. But I graduated a semester early, which means that about a week and a half ago school ended for me and now I'm free to be on my own. I've always been very independent of my parents, for the past 3 years they've basically given me a room to live in and food some nights and that's been it. Not because they're bad parents, mind you, but because that's simply the way I wanted it. And now I'm going back to Connecticut for a while.

The pictures I'll post today and tomorrow are meant to have an air of leaving to them. Today is a girl leaving the frame on a bicycle, tomorrow...well, let's concentrate on today, shall we?
