I miss Berkeley
I miss...
... the way clouds rolled through the skies, blanketing the hills with a fine mist.
... catching AC Transit on the way to class, saving me an extra 10 minute walk.
... people-watching on Sproul.
... the atmosphere of complete discontent for the present, warranted and unwarranted.
... how the Campanile tends to dominate the skyline, even with Evans Hall next to it.
... looking for fish and crawdads in Strawberry Creek.
... the obnoxious number of people during special events/holidays/weekends.
... cooking unhealthy food for myself because I couldn't afford a real meal.
... sensory overloads of primary colors during spirit stuff.
... impromptu parties and dinner/lunch dates.
... being in walking distance of everything.
... disharmonious styles of architecture clashing.
I wish...
... I had made an effort to see people more.
... I had thought about my career more thoroughly before I chose majors/jobs.
... I had been more creative and self-expressive.
... I had been more social.
... I could have kept some friendships in spite of bad grudges.
... I was better at keeping touch.
... the Bay Area wasn't so far away or expensive to visit.
... people would stop posting on Facebook how wonderful their lives are.
... I had put less emphasis on school my last semester.
... I had joined NSU sooner.
... I didn’t have so many regrets.
