Back in New York

I've been back home for two full days now and I am coming upon my third. It's strange; it almost feels as if I never left the country. My whole experience in Beijing is like a distant dream minus the fact that I have like 20+ gigs of pictures on my computer and all the souvenirs I brought back with me that proves it was actually real. Being home is nice. All the familiar sights and sounds put me at ease. It's quite cold here in New York and I'm getting used to the lack of warmth in my house (the heat is on, but it doesn't spread throughout the entire house).

I miss Beijing though. I miss my friends and I miss the cheap food. All the Chinese friends I've made there keep telling me to go back as soon as I can, hah. That makes my heart smile; I've left enough of an impression that they want me to go back ^_^

Now that I'm back home, I have a lot of things to do. Mainly, apply to jobs and eat good food. I lost weight during my time in China and while I plan on continuing the weight loss, I still want to eat good food. I just need to be more aware of how much I eat and what I eat. As for the job applying, I need to do as much of that as I can because I need to be prepared for post-grad life. None of that sitting at home and doing nothing. None of it.

I still need to unpack all my stuff. I really suck at unpacking. Especially if I have to leave again in a month to go back to Rochester. It's my last semester! I still can't believe it. GAHHH. When did I start growing up?!
