Today is my first official day
being home, and it’s great! I slept in until eleven this morning and enjoyed
every minute of it! It’s a little weird to be home but not really. I’m
surprised how fast I’ve already adjusted. And it’s been great to get back to
things I’ve missed. I made a list while I was gone of things I missed about the
States, and this is what I came up with:
- Unlimited free wifi
- Fast-moving elevators (or lifts, as the UK would say)
- Working toilets (you had to flush three times before it worked)
- Outlets in the bathroom (I never saw an outlet in the bathroom. Not once. How do they expect me to do my hair?)
- Light switches inside the bathroom (they were always outside)
- Free public toilets (should that be legal to charge for something like that? No wonder Paris is so gross.)
- Smoking laws (I added this one after waiting in line for Notre Dame behind a man who was smoking right into our faces. That would never be allowed here.)
- Cold milk!
- Street signs (the lack of these made it a lot easier to get lost…)
Anyway, it was an AMAZING
experience, but I’m glad to be home. This concludes my posts on this blog. I
hope you all have enjoyed reading it, and I appreciate the support you’ve all
given me! And if anyone’s thinking about going on a study abroad, my advice is
go for it! Do whatever it takes to get out there because you will never have another
chance to do something like it. This is one decision that I am sure I will never
regret. :)
