Mid-term Reflections

So, I've been here for about half the time I stay here in London.

I'm not really homesick...but looking forward to getting back to the States.

I'll get to see my friends and family again.
I won't have to worry about money as much.
I'll be able to grill.
I'll have all of my clothes/shoes to wear.

It's also getting to that time where people are starting to annoy people....I hope that I'm not annoying anyone....

I feel like I fit into London pretty well...people ask me for directions....I feel bad when I know that I point them in the wrong way....

I'm still upset about a boy....I wish that I was able to visit him during first semester. I think that might have changed things....maybe....hes not that far from Iowa City...maybe him and I shoulda met over the summer...but I was a good boy...and stayed home :(

I've began to appreciate nature and the outdoors a bit more. It doesn't mean that I'm going to go out, hike and  camp...but maybe I'll buy a hammock when I get home....

Also, Patrick and I have decided that we are going to have grilling parties. I miss the grill so much...and steak.

I've learned that I can actually survive on less than what I thought I could....

I miss having a job during the day. It gives me something to occupy myself with instead of sitting around on the computer all day...also...I get money :)

Also, I've decided that when I get home, I'm going to drive around....maybe go to Blakesburg....visit my old stomping grounds.  Go back to the house I spent half my life in....see if I can remember where I buried treasure....idk....attempt to walk the pasture....Warner would love that....the kid of the jackass that punched him in the face...on his property....go to Sunnyacres....lay out on my car and watch the stars shine at Grandma and Grandpa's old lot....who knows....I just want to roam....being stuck in the middle of London makes me want to get away into the countryside.
