The Things I miss

• understanding what people are saying
• Noah
• Being able to go to the shops and buying something by myself
  
• My shower and having my own bathroom
• Drawing
• My friends and our stupid joking and antics
• My dvd collection (i’ve had such a craving to watch LOTR and the office)
• being able to call sam whenever and asking him to come over and watch movies
• hinely street mcdonalds/mcdonalds in general
• tatachilla
  
• meat pies and just, bakery good in general
• not having gym
• loli
• art class with friends
• rotary meetings
• being able to chat with my friends whenever without having to worry about a stupid time difference
• central heating
• driving
• having a uniform at school
  
• being able to walk around the house in socks or bare feet
• not going to uni with all my friends
• English tv and movies
  
• Going to the pantry whenever
• My room

Even though I miss all of these things, i haven’t felt homesick yet, weird. So far these lists are pretty even, but i’m really hoping the ‘love’ list will continue to grow and the ‘miss’ list get smaller.

Adios Amigos!
