Since, I've started school I've found that I'm kinda homesick. Of course I miss my family and friends but I also find myself missing something about the area itself.
So, here are some of the random things I miss about Lancaster:
California Poppies:

Joshua Trees:
Sonic Booms
Zero Humidity
Wide Open Spaces
I think the list of "things I definately don't miss" would be longer, but putting that list together would be kind of depressing.
I was telling someone about the Poppies yesterday and I seriously wanted to cry because the chances of me seeing them in the next 5 or 6 years is so slim. I may stay here, I may go to Boston for Grad school, I may move to San Francisco...
ReplyDeleteBut none of those places have the amazing poppy reserves.
I guess I'll have to blow up that picture and frame it in my bedroom.
I miss my family, my house, my queen size bed, my own bathroom, not wearing shoes in the shower, home cooked meals, and driving.
I miss all of those things too... (well not the driving or the queen sized bed, but the same general things)
ReplyDeleteBut, when I was thinking about this I was caught off guard by some of the things about the AV that I'm just so use to and that I actually do miss these things.
Its SO different here! There are TREES and the leaves are falling, and we are having a beautiful fall! And I LOVE it, but the AV will always hold a special place in my heart.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see you at Xmas!
