Every time I turn around, I am being reminded that this is my last year and final year living at home as a kid. I know that I can come back during breaks from college, but it won't truly ever be the same as it is right now. I basically have no real burdens to worry about, my laundry gets done, food is always available and ready for me to eat, and a nice comfy couch is ready for my company. I just realized that how much I love my mom's cooking and that I am going to miss it so much when I go to college next year. I realized that I like my privacy in my room and that I might miss that alone time next year when I have a roommate. I realized just how nice it is to have a backyard that I can go in and I especially just realized how much I love my garden. I realized that sure all of these things are mine and will be available to me. But they will be available to me at a distance. I just realized how much I love coming home and escaping the drama of the day.
As I make these interesting realizations and as summer and college approach me faster and faster, I wonder what emotions I am really feeling. I wonder if I will be okay being so far away from the best homemade tacos ever!? I wonder if I will be able to cope with my now mysterious roommate. I wonder if Brown's Main Green can become my new backyard.
I guess I will just have to wait and see...
