Ok for anyone thinking of wanting to move to Australia....forget about it, dont do it. There is a list of things that had I known before I got here I would have reconsidered. The list may sound petty to you and small, but think about this: What is it that makes your home, home?
Because to me its:
Going to either Starbucks or Coffee people and having a chat with friends
Being able to watch the seasons, enjoy the color of fall and snow of winter
In the middle of the night after drinking being able to grab some taco bell
Have your friends to call or just show up and hang out whenever you want
Being able to know what your wanting in a grocery store and knowing it will be there.
Getting a pumpkin pie and covering it in whip cream, they dont have pumpkin pie here.
Knowing if you wanted you could go to the beach, desert, mountains, country or city all about 1 hour away from another.
The list goes on.
Bottom line I miss you all, its Christmas season and damnit I am homesick.

I choose this time to let everyone know I am with you in spirit, I am there driving at night enjoying the Christmas lights and a hot cup of cider, I am giving you a hug as I walk through the door carrying cookies for everyone, I am spending a moment admiring your tree and the happiness it gives you, and this year I would be the one wanting everyone to go to Portland and watch the fireworks.

To all of you, Merry Christmas and may you have a Happy New Year! *HUGS*
