You knew this post was coming...

I’m all settled in. I’ve checked out the local restaurants, I’ve finally bought that gym membership, and things are feeling way less shiny and new.  I’ve got my routine and I know my streets (sort of). I love the freedom and challenge of living in a new town, but there are lots of things that I miss as well.  It is really tempting to just hide out and think about the way things were.

I love my classmates!!

Then you have to get over it, because it isn’t cool to waste an entire year feeling all homesick. I’m keeping myself busy with crafts, books, T.V. shows and new coffee shops. That said, you just can't replace good friends, sisters, or mentors.

In truth, I'm always feeling homesick. It was like that when I went to college in Denton, again when I moved to Memphis, and now here in Georgia. It gets a little easier every move. Still, I would really like to find some quality queso... I may finally have to learn how to cook!
