The many things I miss about you

I am not fond of missing people. It’s probably one of the worst feelings I've ever had towards a person, a place and/or an object. Being this far away from home just makes it harder to try and escape these feelings and the saddest part is, there’s nothing I can really do to remedy this ghastly nostalgia. I guess I was trying so hard to run away from it as much as I possibly can but I can only avoid it for so long. It has caught up with me and at this very second, I am what you call – an emotional mess. Homesickness is so not cool. The thing that makes me scared is that I still have a long way to go, I mean – I still have a whole year and a half in this city. I better start getting used to these mood swings and try to cope. I can’t complain though. I mean, I’m having the time of my life here and it’s amazing beyond words but sometimes; I just want to be with the people I used to see every day. I’m four months in and I am about to unravel into a sentimental pit– pretty soon I’ll be one of those pinoys who watch TFC 24/7. Thank God I don’t have a TV. lol.

Missing my family and friends is a given. Other than that, I have a number of things that I miss just because I don’t get to do (or see) them as much or even at all anymore...
