What do I miss about home?

1) I miss my sister. Neither of us like to admit it but when it comes down to it we always have each other to rely on when things get tough. It was a hard goodbye the day I left for Utah.

 

2) I miss my mom. My mom is my best friend. Now that I'm away at college I talk to my mom for hours on the phone sometimes. We text too. It's weird but I have conversations with my mom besides ones like "what else do you need shipped to you for college?"

3) I miss my dad. I won't get to see him over Christmas break because I he's leaving for Pakistan to visit his family back home and he leaves before I do and comes back after me so I basically won't see him for a year.

4) I miss my aunt and uncle. I know it kills them that I'm gone because they don't have kids of their own so, I'm basically it for them.

5) I miss my dog. Dogs have a way of cheering you up when you're sad and it's not the same with humans. The bond a person has with their dog can't be put into words because it's just that special.

 

6) I miss my friends. I have friends here but it's not the same because they don't know you as well and you can't go hug them when something is wrong because you don't know them well enough for that yet.

7) I miss my Jesse. He's away at college and we're doing the long distance thing but nothing beats a hug and a kiss from your boyfriend. He's in Colorado which is just a state over but at the same time I don't get to see him until Christmas with everyone else.

 

8) I miss my house. I have my own room at home. Sharing a room is tough for me because my roommate doesn't exactly comply with my sleeping needs because she stays up later. She's kind of bugging me for other reasons to but I'll save that for another post maybe. I miss my hometown. I miss my car. I miss knowing where everything is in my city. Here I don't. I'm looking forward to Christmas break so bad!

9) I miss my mom making dinner. I feel sick when I eat food from the dining hall because nothing is healthy. It was nice for first week but now I'm sick of the food.

10) I just want to go home for Christmas. I have a countdown. 74 days!
