back to SF in a couple of days

I leave in less than a week.

I don't want to leave So Cal obviously. Weather's great, I love my clean(ish) room, and my parents have high definition television. At least this is my last semester. Then I get to move back while I try to find a way to support myself in this horrendous job market. Yippee.

I'm not too afraid. I have hope that things will work out in the end, and meanwhile I'm supported by people who love me and are there to advise me when I need it. It'll be okay.

Okay, in more important matters: I hate the AC machine in my room. It looks like a robot. It is a robot. When it turns on, two openings like eyes flip up. Very disturbing. I haven't been using it since it's not that hot enough, and yet it MAKES SOUNDS. It is very loud and clunky so I'll hear it if it moves to come and hurt me in my sleep. By the by...

Things I will NOT miss:
1. the robot AC
2. loud OC girls who are not creative with their outfits
3. people who stare at me like a crazy person when I'm out riding my bike
4. seeing my parents forlorn after watching the Lakers lose a game
5. rude people at the movies who can't leave their cell phones in their pockets/purses for more than 30 minutes at a time

Things I WILL miss:
1. my bike (it was getting rusty up in SF, and it's hard to use up there with the crazy hills and all--it's a single speed and better for flat terrain)
2. fam and friends, esp. Catherine who'll be staying in So Cal
3. le soleil, bien sur
4. embarrassing my parents at Costco while I dribble basketballs down aisles and other sorts of things that make my parents laugh/be embarrassed
5. thinking I could run into a member of my fave band Thrice at a store and then not saying anything to them because I just "want to leave them alone" and then kicking myself for not taking the chance because it'll be the last chance I ever get
