Well, I can't forget where I was born; like The Boss so eloquently said "I was born in a small town... and I can breathe in a small town..." I could go on with this song, but you get the idea (and if you want to know the lyrics, you can find it online, I'm sure; it's called "Small Town," appropriately enough.)
Southwick is a little hilltown convienently situated in southwestern Massachusetts, at the base of the Berkshires. If you look of a map of Massachusetts, you'll notice a little dip in the southern border that goes down into Connecticut -- that's Southwick.
Southwick's a pretty small town, known for the Congamond Lakes (ponds, really), Rebecca Lobo (famous women's basketball player), and Mrs. Murphy's Donuts.

I went to Southwick-Tolland Regional High School -- graduating class of around 115 kids. High school was a really good time -- I had a lot of great friends, and had a good time growing up in Southwick. But I've been a little lax in keeping in touch with friends since moving away... it's kinda sad to think that I only keep up with some people via instant messenger and gossip.
But I still love them, and think of them often! Click here to see my friends from high school.
And if you ever happen to pass by Southwick... stop by Mrs. Murphy's. Get a cinnamon cruller for me. Mmmm cinnamon donuts....
