"I Miss You"

Somedays, I feel pretty down being here. I know that I'm not alone in this. I have the Father with me all the time. But, sometimes I miss things. I think that's normal. Or, I hope so at least!

Things I miss:


  • My family... Mom, dad, Chris, and Gabe. Grandparents, aunts and uncles, and cousins! 
  • My friends! The list of names is too long for that one! 
  • Taco Bell-- Baja Blast Mountain Dew included
  • Steak
  • Batting cages
  • Watching basketball
  • GOOD ice cream
  • Code Red Mountain Dew
  • French vanilla coffee beans
  • Redbox
  • My car, Miguel
  • My art studio at North Greenville
  • Tie-dye materials that are readily available
  • THE BEACH!!!!! 
  • Malls, movie theaters, putt putt, Frankie's fun park, Fall's park, bowling, water parks, and roller coasters
  • Build A Bear
  • Camp La Vida
  • MY GUITAR, HUNTER!!!!!!!
  • Pop culture in general
  • Cookie dough 
  • Stuffed Crust pizza
  • Double-stuffed Oreos
Ok, that pretty much sums it up. I miss these things on certain days. Some of them, I miss everyday! But, hey... there are alternate ways to have fun. Most definitely. My fun button has been altered. Now, farming for hours is considered fun. Climbing a mountain is fun. Fishing is fun. Having dinner at someone's house is fun. Just being together is what makes things fun here. It's a nice change. The friendship and company is what's fun! Just enjoying people. I can't tell you how many times I've said I was BORED in America! Now, the thought seems absurd. As my on the go life has majorly been turned upside down, there is time for rest. I've mentioned this in other posts, but I cannot honestly describe to you the weight of the change. It's like making a transition from living on an addictive substance your whole life and then just quitting cold turkey. And, who knows? I might just become a world-renown philosopher out of all this. 

MISSING MY MOM! I MISS YOU MAW! 
 MISSING CHRISTOPHER POTATO!
 MISSING GABIE BABY! 
Oh yes, and...
  • Speed limits
  • Traffic laws
  • wearing shorts in public without being considered a prostitute
  • American chocolate
  • Seeing obese people
  • Seeing black people
  • The smell of Georgetown's paper mill on a hot day
  • Hurricanes
  • Pluff-mud
