Good Old Home. Where I'm meant to be.

A home is where I am meant to be. A home is full of good memories. It is where I have fun. It is where I have family and friends over. It is not a cube of bricks, it is where I have a fun time with my sister playing games. It is where I study for a test. Home is where I smell good food and, when I am in the kitchen, I taste the good food. A home is not just a place, but it is a place of comfort. A living room is not just for watching TV. It is where I have family over and play games and laugh at some jokes. It is where I have sleepovers and watch movies with my cousin and sister. It is where I convince my mom to let some friends come over. It was where I broke the curtain and my family and I laughed. This is what a living room is. The kitchen is not just a place to eat, it is where I see my grandma stitching clothes when I come back home from school. It is where I tell my parents that I am hungry 10 minutes after dinner. This is what a kitchen is. A room is not just where I sleep, it is where my mom tells me to clean my room. It is where I have sleepovers. It is where I wish to redecorate it. It is where I nestle into my pillow at night. A basement is not just a storage area, it is where my sister convinces me to help her clean it for her party. This is why my home is where I am meant to be.
