miss vs won't

i leave here so soon and i decided to list some things about this place i'll miss:
-the fact that devin and i are all we got out here. the commandment to cleave to each other has really blessed us.
-the beauty of back east, trrrrrees galore, and ponds at your every turn, huge glorious city of boston just minutes away.
-the people. i adore the friendships i've made, i love the diversity of people and accents. -our ward. bishop macheknie is amazing. our ward has people from harvard and mit, sunday school is so insightful.
-sight seeing to many historic places that all seem to be just a few minutes away. -public transportation. utah needs to step up.
-having anthro only 15 minutes away.
-humidity. my hair gives into its natural man=lovely curls.
-a swimming pool and gym for free.
-the rush of getting by with so little and realizing that you dont need all that you think you do.


things i won't miss:
-devin working 65+ hours a week, all of which start after 12.00 pm
-not eating dinner with devin, or if i do, shame on me cause its at 10.30 pm
-rainy summers
-humidity. straight hair is ruined the second you walk outside, and dish towel turn sour by the end of the day.
-not having all of our stuff. its hard to believe that i have more clothes than the 2 weeks of outfits that i cycle through out here, and yet so exciting at the same time.
-expensive price of gas and food out when living in a city. i wont complain again about the fact that devin and i can eat dinner at byu for less than 7 bucks.
-this apartment that feels like dungeon by the forest sometimes= no light, and very scary at night.
-using a vacuum box as a computer desk, blank white walls, orange couches.
-being away from family and utah.

i cant tell if i'm more excited to come home or more sad to leave. devin and i have felt so blessed to have been here either way.
