Not Too Old to Say that I Miss My Mommy

I don't know why I suddenly feel this way, but I really miss my mom. I think it's the gloomy weather and the constant rain showers. Back in San Diego, I know that I can always drive home whenever I feel that need to see my family. Now that I'm in Glasgow, it would be pretty impractical to fly home every time I get homesick. Calling/skyping doesn't feel the same.

When EAP told the students that most of us would be homesick, I didn't really believe that I would fall in that percentage. I miss my family, my friends, and the food.

I know Christmas is never a big event in my family, but the idea of being here alone for Christmas is depressing. When I booked my flight, I didn't really care. Darn, I'm foolish. I clearly don't know myself well enough. -_____- Dang it, I need my mom. I would love to be annoyed to death by my younger brother or even let my mom nag on me about not wearing enough clothes or eating enough food.

Thank goodness I have about 2 months left. I can't wait until I go home. The first thing I'm going to do is hug my mom and never let go. Then I'm driving down to Irvine to see my bf and hug her to death, maybe grab some munchies before going to San Diego. I don't care how late it is, I'm grabbing Bella to go to the nearest place to eat pho. :) Then I'll be a happy camper.

Ughh, the wind is howling! Poor trees. The thin trunks looks like it's gonna snap in half soon. It kinda reminds me of awkward yoga positions. This place keeps raining and raining. Don't get me wrong. I love the rain! But this is waaay too much. I need sunshine and California. I need my mom's cooking. Omgosh, I need my grammy's cooking.

To make it worse, I realized I didn't bring any family photographs. -___- I depended on Facebook for pictures, but I don't post family albums. Sigh. The only thing I have is from my sister's Facebook picture of her graduation. Hahaha.

I guess for now, this will do. I love how we are all together, which is rare... :)



I can't wait until I am on that flight home and be with family in sunny California.
