The beginning of this week has just been crazy. After Alec (my boyfriend) left from spending the weekend with me, everything seemed to lose a little bit of color, and it took more to make me laugh. As someone who was more excited than ever to move away from home, I think my first wave of home sickness hit around Monday afternoon. To be honest, I don't miss my house, the smell of my mom, or my big bed (okay, I miss having a big bed). I honestly just miss what fall was like with all of my boys. Fall on the central coast is not only where big sweaters and blankets come out, it's time that you go to the beach to feel like it's still summer.

Here in Turlock fall so far seems like a kind of Russian Roulette with cold weather. I miss my friends so much more than I thought I would and thanksgiving seems like it's getting farther and farther away from me. School seems to be getting more and more strenuous, classes are adding on random hours and study sessions and...... *deep breath*
School is good in this way though, the more there is to do the less time I have to miss my boys at home. I will see them sooner than I can perceive right now but I will see them again. I hope I can take more of this week to get more into my classes not only right now but prepare for classes i'm going to have in the winter and spring.
What do you miss about fall in your hometown?
