Whirlwind of Emotion.

The Norwich experience so far has been a whirlwind of emotion tied with physical activity and academics. I've made friends and made plenty of people angry in such a short period of time. I absolutely love it here but in spite of that everyone has at least thought about leaving. I feel torn, not about Norwich but home, about my home back in South Carolina. Norwich University is truly becoming a home to me. Where does that leave Cayce? Coming to Norwich was a big step but what I didn't realize when I took that step was how much harder it is to remain loyal to your hometown. I'm torn because I miss it and I don't miss it. I miss my church family. I miss taking care of the kids. I miss Mrs. Partlow and her family. I miss my lamp and sheet set and string of Christmas lights that were kept in my window for a record amount of time.
