Through the looking glass

Right now I feel like as if I am in a parallel world. This time last year, I was on a plane, sitting next to an old man. holding my blanket and praying that I wouldn't get homesick. Worcester is still with me every day. I have come to understand that I do not have to feel bad for always talking about it, England is now a part of who I am. But I do also understand that if I don't think about it for a day, that is OK too. There has to be a balance. I think I am handling the anniversary well to because I am going to Australia in December to visit Prerna! So naturally that makes me happy! I do not talk to certain people as much as I wish I could, but it is not because I do not try. The only memory right now getting me sad is that I won't be waking up on a hard bed, in a flat, in England. But I will be waking up to a soft queen bed in New Jersey, and right now, I guess that isn't so bad. I have a lot to look forward to, starting my life after graduation in December. Hopefully a lot more traveling. I will always hold close to my heart the people and memories of Fall 20009, I don't think a pack of wild dogs could drag those out of me. So for right now I think I am going to make myself a cup of "Jennifer" Rose Tea, and look through some great pictures!
