All in All by Lifehouse


On my thirteenth birthday, I was moving to Utah.  I didn't really understand how much I would miss home when I left.  I was excited to start over because I wasn't very popular at my school back home.  I was picked on a lot and all of my friends were doing crap I didn't want to get mixed up in.   I was going into 8th grade, and trying to make friends.  I had a little mp3 player I listened to on the 15 minute drive to my Middle School.   I always loved Lifehouse, everyone in my family really liked them.  I'd put this song on and think of my best friend back home that I missed and the feeling I had when I lived there of belonging.  I had never been the new girl, and a lot of my insecurities can be traced back to moving.  I had never been put in that situation of starting over and having to make friends again.   I listened to this song and put my head against the window and told myself everything was going to be okay.   On a happier note, eventually I made some long lasting friends that I still am friends with 8 years later.
